Cybersecurity for At-Home Workers
Work-from-Home workers typically use their personal computing devices and usually operate in an unsecured physical area. This multiplies their vulnerability to cyber attacks and calls for careful configuration of corporate firewalls, anti-malware tools, MFA-based identity verification, remote monitoring, extensive end-user education, and the development of policies based on best practices. Progent's veteran roster of IT security support experts can assist you to design, deploy and manage a compliant security solution that protects critical information assets in networks that incorporate remote workers.

Firewall Integration Services for At-Home WorkersFirewalls allow you to create a network environment that can be safely utilized by on-premises users and by an at-home workforce, mobile workers, vendors, clients, and the public. Next-generation firewall devices allow you to assign and manage different permissions to different classes of users and to expand your network and modify your security as your business evolves and as network attacks become increasingly sophisticated. Progent works with both current and legacy firewall devices from all leading vendors like Cisco, Palo Alto Networks, Check Point, Juniper, and Fortinet.

Remote Endpoint Monitoring and Management for At-Home WorkersRemote Endpoint Security Monitoring makes it easy to watch over the disparate devices utilized by telecommuters and either reject or spot and respond to the latest threats like ransomware. With Progent's ProSight Active Security Monitoring services, a small-footprint agent is installed on each protected endpoint device, watching all activity and utilizing state-of-the-art AI technology from SentinelOne to detect zero-day threats before they can spread. When an attack is spotted, ProSight Active Security Monitoring instantly disconnects the impacted endpoint from the corporate network to quarantine the threat. Because the ProSight ASM agent is self-contained, endpoints remain secure even when they are disconnected from the Internet. Progent is a SentinelOne Partner, dealer, and integrator.

Two-factor Authentication Services for At-Home WorkersProgent's Duo authentication Services incorporate Cisco's Duo technology to protect against stolen passwords by using two-factor authentication.

With 2FA, when you sign into a protected online account and enter your password you are requested to confirm your identity on a device that only you possess and that uses a separate network channel. A wide selection of out-of-band devices can be utilized as this second form of ID validation including an iPhone or Android or wearable, a hardware/software token, a landline telephone, etc. You can register several validation devices.
