Security and Compliance for Remote Workers
Work-from-Home workers typically use their personal computers and often operate in a poorly secured physical area. This multiplies their susceptibility to malware threats and requires careful deployment of firewalls, AV tools, multi-factor authentication, remote monitoring, intensive end-user training, and the development of policies based on best practices. Progent's seasoned group of cybersecurity support experts can assist your business to plan, implement and maintain an effective security solution that protects critical information assets in environments that include telecommuters.

Firewalls enable you to create a network that can be securely utilized by on-premises users and by teleworkers, mobile users, suppliers, customers, and other stakeholders. Modern firewall devices allow you to assign and manage appropriate permissions to various classes of users and to scale your network and adjust your security profile as your company evolves and as network attacks become increasingly complex. Progent works with both new and older security devices from all leading vendors like Cisco, Palo Alto Networks, WatchGuard, Juniper, and Fortinet.

Remote Endpoint Monitoring makes it possible to track the various devices used by remote workers and either reject or spot and respond to modern threats such as ransomware. With Progent's ProSight Active Security Monitoring services, a small-footprint software agent is put on each secured endpoint device, monitoring all activity and using advanced machine learning from SentinelOne to identify zero-day attacks at inception. When a cyberattack is discovered, ProSight Active Security Monitoring immediately disconnects the impacted endpoint from the corporate network to quarantine the malware. Because the ProSight ASM software agent is self-contained, endpoints remain protected even when they are offline. Progent is a SentinelOne Partner, dealer, and integrator.

Progent's Duo authentication Managed Services incorporate Cisco's Duo technology to defend against password theft by using two-factor authentication. Duo enables single-tap identity confirmation on iOS, Google Android, and other out-of-band devices. With 2FA, whenever you sign into a secured application and enter your password you are requested to verify your identity via a unit that only you have and that uses a different ("out-of-band") network channel. A broad range of devices can be used as this second means of authentication including an iPhone or Android or watch, a hardware token, a landline telephone, etc. You may register multiple validation devices. To find out more about Duo identity validation services, refer to Duo MFA two-factor authentication (2FA) services for at-home workers.
