Overview:

Faronics Deep Freeze helps eliminate workstation damage and downtime by making computer configurations indestructible. Once Deep Freeze is installed on a workstation, any changes made to the computer—regardless of whether they are accidental or malicious—are never permanent. Deep Freeze provides immediate immunity from many of the problems that plague computers today—inevitable configuration drift, accidental system misconfiguration, malicious software activity, and incidental system degradation.

Deep Freeze ensures computers are absolutely bulletproof, even when users have full access to system software and settings. Users get to enjoy a pristine and unrestricted computing experience, while IT personnel are freed from tedious helpdesk requests, constant system maintenance, and continuous configuration drift.

Balancing Security with Productivity

Deep Freeze is the only solution that effectively balances workstation security with user productivity. By redirecting user and application data to a Thawed (unprotected) partition or drive, users are able to store their documents, pictures, music, etc., while still enjoying the total system consistency that Deep Freeze offers.

Flexible Resiliency

Deep Freeze offers flexible scheduling options that enable IT administrators to easily create automated update and maintenance periods.  Schedule Deep Freeze to allow system and virus definition updates to occur from predefined times—either with the Deep Freeze Enterprise Console or using your preferred third-party desktop management solution.

Environments:

Education

Computers in education environments are among the toughest IT environments to manage and secure. The large number of daily users, the limited resources of on-site staff, and the immense number of computers and labs that technology personnel must manage all come together to create an IT ‘perfect storm’. IT personnel cannot afford to have computer systems down for long—students use computers in schools to conduct research and complete assignments; instructors need computers to record grades and organize their lessons; administrative staff need their workstations to complete their job function.

Computer Labs

Deep Freeze Mac makes it easy for IT administrators to create bulletproof computer labs that deliver trouble-free computing to instructors and students. Deep Freeze Mac ensures that students are able to use public access computers with the assurance that their session will be free from accidental system mis-configuration, malicious software activity, and incidental system degradation. Personal information is never retained by the computer, which means IT personnel don’t need to worry about desktop computers becoming congested with student projects and files. Computing environments become easier to manage, and expensive computer assets are kept running at 100% capacity.

Deep Freeze Mac’s ability to prevent stability degradation ensures that scholastic computer labs are able to provide the same experience over and over again regardless of the user on the desktop—an important prerequisite to successfully teaching a classroom concept.

Students are able to use library computers with the assurance that their session will be free from malicious software and system slowdowns. IT personnel can rest easy with the knowledge that Deep Freeze Mac makes media computers immune from system slowdowns and software corruption caused by students accessing online media resources during their research.

Corporate/Government

Businesses are constantly in search of solutions that help ensure their operations run efficiently and without interruption. Since computers are relied upon for even the most basic of activities, it is imperative that their technology infrastructure is able to withstand attacks from threats such as system mis-configuration and day-zero attacks. Any interruption to business operations results in lost revenue and opportunities.

Office Computers

IT administrators can map employee profiles to an unprotected area or drive so that employees can save their emails, documents, spreadsheets, and projects. Deep Freeze Mac provides employees with total assurance that their computers will never fail them and cause an interruption in their workday. Deep Freeze Mac enables businesses to easily deploy absolute system resiliency to all corporate desktop and laptop computers. Organizations can easily control their enterprise deployments of Deep Freeze Mac through Apple Remote Desktop. By using Deep Freeze Mac, organizations can ensure the computers software is immune from system corruption, slowdown, and malicious intrusions.

Training Facilities

Using Deep Freeze Mac in corporate training centers means that employees can focus on upgrading their knowledge and skills, rather than having to deal with malfunctioning workstations and mis-configured programs. By keeping training center computer configurations consistent with the instructor machine, users can easily learn by example in a standardized learning environment. Every class can count on the computers being ready-to-go in a pristine and fully functional state—without having to rely on IT personnel to reimage or refresh computers after each and every session.

Deep Freeze Mac’s ability to prevent stability degradation ensures that training computers are able to provide the same experience over and over again regardless of the user on the desktop—an important prerequisite to successfully teaching a classroom concept.

Mobile Computing

Mobile and telecommuting are on the rise in today’s workforce.

The result is a stress-free computing experience for your guest that increases their positive perception of your organization.

Operations and Administration

Ensuring business operations run smoothly with computers you can trust is an important part of the guest experience.
