Deep Freeze Named Best Desktop Security Software SAN RAMON, CA,
August 3, 2006 — Faronics’ flagship product Deep Freeze has received
the eSchool News Readers’ Choice Award as Best Desktop Security
Software. There were separate categories for Windows and Mac
operating systems. Deep Freeze took first place in both platforms by
a significant margin.

eSchool News readers gave Deep Freeze high marks because of its
power, flexibility, and non-restrictive approach. It was a clear
favorite for its proven ability to keep desktops secure, while
noticeably decreasing the number of helpdesk calls after installation.

“We are thrilled that Deep Freeze was recognized by the eSchool News
readers for its non-restrictive yet bulletproof protection,” said
Brent Smithurst, Vice President of Technical Operations at Faronics.
“Deep Freeze was designed as a perfect solution for education to
benefit everyone from the IT staff to the teachers to the students.”
Deep Freeze protects and preserves baseline PC and Mac
configurations. Regardless of the changes a user makes to a
workstation, a reboot resets the computer to its original state —
right down to the last byte. The result is a consistent and
trouble-free computing environment with 100% workstation availability.
