Five Reasons Deep Freeze dangerous for Personal Computers

Based on personal research, I saw quite a lot of computer users who risked the fate of computer security in the hands of Deep Freeze. They think by doing a freeze on its hard disk partition, the malware will not be able to attack their computer. Actually this is quite dangerous considering the Deep Freeze is not a computer security tool.

There are several reasons why the use of Deep Freeze is very dangerous as an alternative to computer security.

1. Can not prevent virus activity

Deep Freeze could indeed prevent the virus infects the hard disk partition that has at-freeze. However, the actual viral activity is still running. Whether infecting another partition that is not to freeze, USB devices, computers in a network, even another computer that is connected to the Internet. This will continue until the virus has been eradicated. Deep Freeze fact unable to eradicate the virus.

2. Unable to prevent the spread of virus

For example, there are viruses on computers that were installed Deep Freeze. Computers are indeed not be problematic. But if we plug in USB devices such as flash disks, MMC, SD, miniSD, microSD, etc. then in a flash USB device they are determined to be full of viruses. This is because Deep Freeze was unable to prevent the spread of the virus from a storage medium to another storage media.

3. Can not ward off other malware

Types of malware are there different kinds, including viruses, intruders, spyware, trojans, and adware. Counteract the virus alone can not be let alone ward off other malware.

For example, spyware can monitor all user activities performed in front of the computer, such as a keylogger. Although it does not destroy data as is done by the virus, personal information, such as passwords, credit card numbers, etc., can be taken away by irresponsible parties. Indeed, after the computer is restarted, the spyware is gone thanks to the recovery session conducted by Deep Freeze. However, what about the personal information that has been stolen? Can they return? Of course not.

4. Do not know the security level of the site opened

In this era of globalization, a phishing site is already a thing that we usually find. Phishing is the act of deception against a person by way of fishing to provide personal information. People who are careless are often stuck with this kind of fraud due to phishing sites created as closely as the original site. And once again, Deep Freeze was not able to prevent phishing action in cyberspace.

5. Easy to hack

A lot of know-how to hack Deep Freeze but none of know-how to hack antivirus. Try searching on Google with keyword "hack deep freeze." Then it will find a lot of know-how to hack password Deep Freeze so that function will be disabled. While the antivirus, no one was willing to hack antivirus pulled for not working.

It's obvious is not it? How dangerous it is when we are risking the fate of computer security at Deep Freeze. It may even be a lot more other reasons. Is fine to install Deep Freeze but do not rely only on the computer security of Deep Freeze. Application protection against malware is still necessary to any time even if Deep Freeze is installed.
