Security for At-Home Workers
Work-from-Home staff members typically utilize their own computing devices and usually work in a poorly secured physical area. This multiplies their susceptibility to malware threats and requires judicious configuration of firewalls, AV tools, multi-factor authentication, remote endpoint monitoring, intensive user education, and the development of security policies based on leading practices. Progent's veteran team of IT security solutions experts can help you to plan, implement and manage an effective security solution that guards critical information resources in networks that incorporate at-home workers.

Firewall Integration Services for At-Home WorkersFirewalls allow you to create a network that can be safely utilized by local users as well as by telecommuters, mobile employees, suppliers, customers, and the public. Modern firewall devices permit you to configure and control appropriate access rights to various classes of users and to scale your network and modify your cybersecurity posture as your business evolves and as network attacks become increasingly complex. Progent supports both current and older security devices from all leading manufacturers including Cisco, Palo Alto Networks, Check Point, Juniper, SonicWall and Fortinet.

Remote Endpoint Monitoring Services for TelecommutersOnline Endpoint Security Monitoring makes it easy to watch over the disparate computers used by at-home workers and either reject or spot and mitigate modern threats like ransomware. With Progent's ProSight Active Security Monitoring (ASM) services, a lightweight agent is installed on every secured endpoint, watching all activity and using advanced machine learning from SentinelOne to identify new threats on arrival. When a cyberattack is discovered, ProSight ASM instantly isolates the targeted device from the corporate network to contain the malware. Since the ProSight ASM software agent is self-contained, endpoints stay protected even if they are disconnected from the Internet. Progent is a SentinelOne Partner, reseller, and integrator. To find out more about ProSight Active Security Monitoring, refer to remote endpoint security monitoring for teleworkers.

Two-factor Authentication Services for TeleworkersProgent's Duo authentication Services utilize Cisco's Duo technology to protect against compromised passwords by using two-factor authentication (2FA). Duo supports single-tap identity confirmation with iOS, Android, and other personal devices. With 2FA, whenever you sign into a secured application and give your password you are requested to confirm who you are via a device that only you possess and that uses a different network channel. A wide selection of out-of-band devices can be used for this added means of authentication such as a smartphone or watch, a hardware/software token, a landline phone, etc. You may designate several verification devices.
