        Bsquare announced plans to resell Sygate's recently introduced "endpoint security solution" to manufacturers and developers of devices based on Windows XP Embedded, as well as to enterprises deploying them. The company will also offer customized system integration services, consulting, and technical support for Sygate's "Security Agent for Microsoft Windows XP Embedded" product.




        According to Bsquare, these Security Agent products and services address customer concerns regarding security of their deployed smart devices, by providing functions such as intrusion detection, intrusion prevention, stateful firewall, enhanced device integrity, and centralized management. These functions also ensure that authorized endpoints are compliant with established security policy before allowing connection to the network, according to the company.

        Sygate's Security Agent for Windows XP Embedded software targets devices such as POS terminals, kiosks, thin clients, ATMs, gaming machines, and medical devices, and requires minimal resource footprint.
