Cybersecurity for Remote Workers
Work-from-Home (WFH) staff members typically utilize their personal computers and often work in an unsecured physical environment. This situation increases their susceptibility to cyber attacks and calls for judicious configuration of corporate firewalls, anti-malware tools, multi-factor authentication, remote endpoint monitoring, extensive end-user training, and the creation of security policies based on leading practices. Progent's veteran group of cybersecurity support experts can help your business to design, configure and maintain a compliant cybersecurity solution that guards critical information assets in networks that incorporate remote workers.

Remote Endpoint Monitoring and Management Services for At-Home WorkersOnline Endpoint Security Monitoring makes it possible to watch over the disparate devices used by remote workers and either block or identify and respond to modern cyber attacks such as ransomware. With ProSight Active Security Monitoring (ASM) services, a lightweight agent is installed on each secured endpoint, watching all activity and utilizing advanced AI technology from SentinelOne to identify zero-day attacks before they can spread. When a cyberattack is spotted, ProSight Active Security Monitoring instantly disconnects the targeted endpoint device from the corporate network to contain the threat. Because the ProSight ASM agent is autonomous, endpoints remain secure even when they are offline. Progent is a SentinelOne Partner, dealer, and integrator.
