Cybersecurity for Remote Workers
At-home staff members typically use their personal devices and often operate in an unsecured physical environment. This multiplies their vulnerability to cyber attacks and calls for judicious deployment of corporate firewalls, anti-malware tools, MFA-based identity verification, remote endpoint monitoring, thorough end-user education, and the creation of security policies built on best practices. Progent's seasoned team of data security support consultants can assist your business to design, configure and manage an effective security solution that protects vital IT resources in networks that include remote workers.

Firewall Integration Services for At-Home WorkersFirewalls allow companies to build a network environment that can be securely utilized by on-premises users as well as by at-home workers, mobile workers, vendors, clients, and other stakeholders.

Progent supports both current and older security appliances from all leading manufacturers like Cisco, Palo Alto Networks, WatchGuard, Juniper, and Fortinet.

Remote Endpoint Monitoring Services for TelecommutersOnline Endpoint Monitoring makes it easy to track the disparate devices utilized by remote workers and either block or spot and mitigate modern cyber attacks such as ransomware. With ProSight Active Security Monitoring services, a small-footprint agent is put on each secured endpoint device, watching all activity and utilizing advanced machine learning from SentinelOne to identify new threats before they can spread. When an attack is spotted, ProSight ASM instantly disconnects the infected device from the corporate network to quarantine the threat. Since the ProSight ASM agent is autonomous, endpoints remain secure even when they are offline. Progent is a SentinelOne Partner, dealer, and integrator.
