In Case of Emergency (ICE) License Option
On-Demand Remote Access Business Continuity
Instantly address dramatic peaks and shifts in demand for remote access when emergencies strike
Secure Remote Access solutions keep businesses running by connecting people and resources — even during the most unpredictable circumstances. When hurricanes, terrorist threats, cyberattacks, system outages, transportation strikes, pandemics, or other disastrous events occur, it can result in the quarantine or isolation of entire regions or groups of people for an extended period of time.
Through the ICE license option, organizations can instantly address a dramatic peak or change in demand for remote access in cases of emergency by supporting additional user capacity and license shifting across Pulse Secure physical, virtual and cloud appliances.
ICE can be employed for a limited time to:
- Maintain productivity by rapidly enabling ubiquitous access to applications and resources for employees from anywhere, at any time, and on any device
- Sustain customer and partner engagement with around-the-clock service and collaboration access while assuring authenticated, protected access
- Meet government mandates and business obligations for contingencies and continuity of operations (COOP) compliance
