Cybersecurity for At-Home Workers
Work-from-Home employees commonly utilize their personal devices and often work in a poorly secured physical area. This multiplies their susceptibility to malware threats and calls for careful configuration of corporate firewalls, AV tools, multi-factor authentication, remote endpoint monitoring, extensive end-user education, and the development of security policies based on leading practices.

Remote Security Monitoring and Management Services for At-Home WorkersOnline Endpoint Monitoring makes it possible to track the disparate devices utilized by an at-home workforce and either block or identify and mitigate the latest cyber attacks such as 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 advanced machine learning from SentinelOne to identify new attacks on arrival. When an attack is spotted, ProSight Active Security Monitoring immediately isolates the targeted device from the corporate network to contain the threat. Since the ProSight Active Security Monitoring software agent is autonomous, endpoint devices stay protected even if they are not connected to the Internet.

Two-factor Authentication (2FA) Services for Remote WorkersProgent's Duo authentication Services incorporate Cisco's Duo cloud technology to protect against password theft through the use of two-factor authentication (2FA).

Using 2FA, when you log into a protected online account and give your password you are requested to confirm your identity via a unit that only you possess and that is accessed using a separate network channel. A wide range of devices can be utilized for this added form of authentication such as an iPhone or Android or wearable, a hardware/software token, a landline telephone, etc. You can designate several verification devices.
