        (Updated Sep. 21, 2004) Bsquare introduced a new security-focused "packaged service" for device makers this week at the Embedded Systems Conference (ESC) in Boston. Bsquare's new Secure JumpStart offering includes a bootable Windows XP Embedded operating system image that incorporates Sygate Technologies's Security Agent for Windows XP Embedded plus applications and device drivers adapted to the...


        customer's hardware platform.

        Secure JumpStart also includes ten days of engineering services for integrating the Sygate Managed Security Agent, creating customized group policy security settings, generating a binary Windows XP Embedded image running on the customer's hardware platform, integrating all applicable Microsoft security patches, and porting up to two applications from Windows NT/XP to Windows XP Embedded.

        Also at ESC this week, Sygate Technologies introduced version 4.0 of its Security Agent for Windows XP Embedded, featuring enhanced virus protection and anti-application hijacking along with improved performance and manageability. Other enhancements are said to include a dramatically reduced, single-agent footprint, seamless integration with Microsoft's Target Designer, and the availability of a run-time version of the agent.

        Mike Starnes, a Bsquare technical expert, will be presenting at the Embedded Security Seminar at ESC this Wednesday, September 15, from 2:00-3:30pm. His presentation is entitled Integrating Security into your Windows Embedded Device.

        The company has also released a whitepaper entitled Best Practices for Protecting Windows XP Embedded Devices available for download here.

        Bsquare's Secure JumpStart packaged service is priced at $9995.
