Deep Freeze has changed the way IT Professionals approach end-point security; its non-restrictive concept offers the most robust workstation protection available. The need for IT professionals to perform rebuilds, re-image, or troubleshoot computers is eliminated with Deep Freeze's reboot-to-restore technology. The result is a dramatic reduction in support and IT expenditures and a substantial increase in computer uptime.

Faronics Deep Freeze comes with a set of powerful features that prove immensely useful for IT administrators looking to secure their systems and keep them running smoothly, without any restrictions.

Features:

Security and Control

Enhanced security is rolled into Faronics Deep Freeze with protection for the Master Boot Record (MBR) from rootkit injections, making your security bulletproof.

Secure the Master Boot Record (MBR)
Prevent unauthorized administrators from accessing or controlling a computer that runs Deep Freeze via a unique Customization Code for all components
Preset multiple passwords to be used on a workstation or via the Command Line Control with varying activation and expiration dates
Disable keyboard and mouse, including touchscreen devices, during Thawed Periods or on demand
Boot Control window provides the ability for immediate reboot

Customized configuration makes setting up Deep Freeze for your environment a breeze.

Data Retention Options

With Deep Freeze installed, data can be retained across reboots by redirecting both user and application data to storage space on non-system or network drives.

Use ThawSpaces to store programs, save files, or make permanent changes
Format ThawSpaces to remove unwanted files
Specify the size of the ThawSpace and host drive
