I've got a C# MVC application using Identity. I'm trying to find a solution to authenticate a Kiosk User:
My simplest idea was to create a user role Kiosk that would be disallowed from logging out; however that doesn't solve the login problem unless I "remember" the kiosk user by a crazy-long-expiry-date cookie.
It also doesn't necessarily stop anyone from simply deleting the cookie (although I could live with that, the kiosk computer is in a monitored environment).
Identification by IP is not possible.
I'm looking for ideas on how I might be able to accomplish this. What pieces of software, or a certificate, or something could I install on that computer that'd allow me to check it is that one in my application?
Thanks for any suggestion that you might have.
This is commonly done with a persistent cookie as you describe, in the case of a web app. You could set the login cookie expiration to some long term date such as 1 year, 5 years or whatever makes sense. You can do this based on a role the user is a member of, user name, or some other identifier. I have done this before and I usually add a new option of some kind to hide the logout button/menu option.
Other options would be:
