Sygate On-Demand (SODA) is an endpoint security solution that allows 
enterprises to enforce security policies on client devices without having to 
install any special software on the client machines. MSS can be 
configured to run SODA security checks on users’ machines as a 
requirement for gaining access to the network.

The SODA endpoint security solution consists of six modules that provide 
on-demand security:

„

Virtual Desktop – Protects confidential data by virtualizing the 
desktop, applications, file-system, registry, printing, removable media, 
and copy/paste functions. All data is encrypted on-the-fly and can 
optionally be erased upon session termination. The virtual desktop is 
isolated from the normal desktop, protecting the session from 
previous infection.

„

Host Integrity – Tests the security of the desktop to determine how 
much access to network resources the device should be granted. Host 
integrity checks include: 

„

Ensuring that an anti-virus product is running with up-to-date virus 
definitions

„

Ensuring that a personal firewall is active

„

Checking that service pack levels are met

„

Ensuring that critical patches are installed

Custom checks can be implemented based on the existence of specific 
registry keys/values, applications, files, or operating system platforms. 
Network access can also be prevented based on the existence of 
specific processes.
