Security for Remote Workers
At-home workers typically utilize their personal computing devices and usually work in a poorly secured physical area. This multiplies their vulnerability to cyber threats and requires careful deployment of corporate firewalls, AV tools, multi-factor authentication, remote endpoint monitoring, intensive end-user education, and the development of policies built on best practices. Progent's seasoned roster of cybersecurity solutions experts can assist you to design, deploy and manage an effective cybersecurity solution that protects vital IT assets in environments that include at-home workers.
Firewalls allow companies to build a network environment that can be safely utilized by local users and by an at-home workforce, mobile employees, suppliers, customers, and the public. Modern firewall devices permit you to configure and control different permissions to various groups of users and to expand your IT network and adjust your security profile as your business evolves and as network attacks become increasingly sophisticated. Progent supports both current and older security devices from all major manufacturers including Cisco, Palo Alto Networks, Check Point, Juniper, SonicWall and Fortinet.

Online Endpoint Security Monitoring makes it easy to track the various devices utilized by remote workers and either reject or spot and mitigate the latest cyber attacks such as ransomware. With Progent's ProSight Active Security Monitoring (ASM) services, a small-footprint software agent is installed on every secured endpoint, watching all activity and utilizing state-of-the-art behavioral threat analysis from SentinelOne to identify zero-day attacks at inception. When a cyberattack is spotted, ProSight Active Security Monitoring immediately isolates the infected endpoint device from the network to contain the threat. Because the ProSight ASM agent is autonomous, endpoints remain secure even if they are not connected to the Internet. Progent is a SentinelOne Partner, dealer, and integrator. To find out more about ProSight ASM, refer to remote endpoint monitoring for at-home workers.
Progent's Duo authentication Managed Services utilize Cisco's Duo technology to protect against compromised passwords through the use of two-factor authentication. Duo enables one-tap identity confirmation with iOS, Android, and other personal devices. Using Duo 2FA, when you sign into a protected application and give your password you are asked to confirm your identity on a device that only you have and that uses a different ("out-of-band") network channel. A broad selection of out-of-band devices can be utilized as this second means of ID validation including an iPhone or Android or wearable, a hardware/software token, a landline phone, etc. You can register several validation devices.
