Secure Lockdown - Multi Application Edition

Secure Lockdown - Multi Application Edition is an application that can put various Windows features under lockdown. It is suited for museums, hotels, military institutions and schools in order to create scenarios in which only certain applications can be accessed by a non-administrative user.

In other words, Secure Lockdown - Multi Application Edition can create a custom operating environment, where a number of features will be unavailable to the general audience, as specified by the administrator of the computer.

With this application enabled, the login screen will be replaced by a personalized start screen, from where only a few Windows modules can be accessed. It can act as a prevention measure against attempts to modify the computer configuration or to steal information on a PC that is of public interest.

Administrators can even set a password for the application core, which will be requested each time a new action is attempted. The lockdown process can affect the system, apps that are running in the background, as well as the behavior of Internet Explorer.

There are possibilities to disable shutdown operations, access to local drives, the desktop, the taskbar, safe mode, application installation, fast user switching, to name just a few. For IE, you can block dialogs to open a new window, deactivate printing, the right-click menu, private browsing, to make menus or bars invisible or to restrict the domains that can be visited to a predefined list.

Once you’ve made all the configurations, you can apply them and restart the computer in order to trigger the new environment. Administrators will still have unlimited access to the whole array of settings by the pressing of a keyboard shortcut (Alt+Shift+S).

In conclusion, Secure Lockdown - Multi Application Edition is an innovative and versatile program that can build and enable custom scenarios with more or less OS restrictions, according to the administrator. It was designed as a sum of the basic edition, combined with the IE version.
