Clearing the web browser cache.

Why: on a public computer the biggest risk is leftover cached pages, cookies and session data that can let the next user access internal systems. Clearing the browser cache (and ideally all browsing data: cookies, history, form data and saved passwords) removes those artifacts.

(Blocking pop‑ups, disabling add‑ons or turning off form history help privacy but are less effective at removing existing session tokens or cached pages that enable unauthorized access.)
