YORK, Pa. – KioWare is excited to announce the release of a KioWare OS for Linux product. Originally only available for Android, KioWare OS for Linux is our most secure product to date. Both options were created to provide customers with an industry-leading, customizable kiosk solution that saves time and money.
Our new KioWare OS product has been designed to enable a device to become a kiosk appliance where KioWare OS for Linux is completely in charge of the device from power up to power down, and only loads what is necessary to operate as a self-service kiosk. Our Configuration Tool makes it easy to set-up the kiosk and allows you to control exactly how you wish the kiosk to function.
KioWare OS for Linux is lightweight enough to run on smaller devices, such as the Raspberry Pi or ASUS Tinkerboard, as well as larger x86-64 devices.
Many features that you’ve come to love with other KioWare products are available for Linux, including:
-
Blocking for popup window control, domain/page lists, and file downloads

Kiosk Security such as browser lockdown, OS lockdown, keyboard filtering, basic authentication and start on boot

User Management including clearing private browser data, attract screen management, browser resetting, and more
