"At no cost" does not cover additional "above the rez cost" costs (cf. Caryatid or Digiconda), since these are not part of the rez cost. |

"At no cost" means you waive the normal bit/action cost for whatever the action is, as well as any special costs listed in the text. All outside penalties still apply, so the Purge still has to account for Restrictive Net Zoning and similar cards. |

If the Corp scores Security Purge when there are fewer than three cards left in R&D, the Corp shows as many cards as there are in R&D to the Runner and fulfills as much of the Purge effects as possible; since the effects do not require the Corp to "draw" the cards, the Corp player cannot lose the game by scoring this agenda. |

Security Purge says 'rez them, at no cost'. 'No cost' refers to the number in the upper right corner of a card. Security Purge doesn't let you get out of paying Glacier's agenda point cost.
Note that Security Purge instructs you to install and rez the ice, which means you have to do so if possible. If there are additional costs to install + rez, and you can pay them, you have to install + rez and pay those costs. I.e, if you've scored any agenda, and Security Purge turns up Glacier, you have to install + rez Glacier, and therefore spend 1 of your agenda points. |
