Ensure 100% Uptime for Critical Medical Systems

Faronics Deep Freeze provides comprehensive protection for IT systems.

• Deep Freeze makes workstation configurations indestructible
• Guarantees 100% workstation recovery upon restart
• Provides password protection and complete security
• Protects multiple hard drives and partitions
• Prevents workstation drift and accidental system misconfiguration
• Helps maintain Software compliance across all workstations

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

• 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
• Use Stealth Mode to hide the Deep Freeze system tray icon

Central management makes it easy to deploy, configure, and manage Deep Freeze using the Enterprise Console or Core Console.

• Quickly populate multiple groups or sub-groups with smart automatic filters or import groups from Active Directory
• Invoke system maintenance on demand with “Thaw Locked” mode to block access to Keyboard and Mouse
• Launch RDP and VNC sessions right from the Deep Freeze Enterprise Console
• Create customized Enterprise Consoles with tailored features
• Remotely deploy, execute, and control software on managed workstations
• With Faronics Core keep scheduled actions “active” to ensure updates on offline workstations
• With Faronics Core manage workstations with dynamic groups, perform actions on workstation groups, view workstation activity status, and remotely wake-up offline workstations via the web

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

• Use the Configuration Administrator to specify multiple passwords, select drives to be Frozen, create ThawSpaces to save data, create workstation tasks, schedule maintenance and set advanced networks
• Create multiple customized installers with different configurations
• Pre-select Frozen Drives and selectively Freeze or Thaw fixed drives
• Schedule automatic Restart/Shutdown times
• Automate Windows Update installation and detect when installation is complete to reboot Frozen or shutdown
• Schedule multiple Thawed Periods to perform Windows updates (through the Internet or WSUS) or run a custom batch file to update other software
• Automatically apply configuration changes to workstations without having to disable Deep Freeze

Easy deployment of Faronics Deep Freeze is made possible with several options.

• Use the built-in Command Line Interface to manage Deep Freeze from within the most popular desktop management systems such as Microsoft SCCM, Dell KACE, Spice Works, and Symantec Altiris (Check out our Integration page)
• Easy deployment options including a silent install for rapid network deployment, deployment as part of your imaging solution or via the Enterprise Console
• Provides option to deploy on multiple workstations as part of a master image
• Includes the Deep Freeze Command Line Control Utility for remote management
• Create, edit, download, and share XML-based Deep Freeze Action Files to interact with other programs via the Enterprise Console

Deep Freeze may be used in conjunction with Faronics Anti-Virus, Anti-Executable and Power Save.

• Single Console to manage both Deep Freeze and Faronics Anti-Virus clients
• Seamless malware definition retention on workstations protected in a Frozen state with Faronics Anti-Virus
• Malware definitions for other anti-virus solutions can be easily retained through use of Thawed Periods
• Integration with Faronics Anti-Executable and Faronics Power Save to detect Deep Freeze Thawed Periods
• Or use the built-in Command Line Interface to manage Deep Freeze from within the most popular desktop management systems such as Microsoft SCCM, Dell KACE, Spice Works, and Symantec Altiris (Check out our Integration page)

Windows updates are easy to automate with Deep Freeze.

• Automatically download Windows updates even when machines are Frozen
• Much faster Windows updates as cached updates are applied as soon as the machines are Thawed
• Detects when updates are complete and automatically returns the computer back to a frozen state, eliminating the need to set maintenance window completion times (Watch Video)
• Schedule multiple Thawed Periods to perform Windows updates (through the Internet or WSUS) or run a custom batch file to update other software
• Update Maintenance schedules over the air right from the Enterprise Console without disabling Deep Freeze
