Security for Remote Workers
Work-from-Home employees typically use their own devices and usually work in a poorly secured physical area. This situation increases their susceptibility to malware threats and calls for careful deployment of corporate firewalls, anti-malware tools, multi-factor authentication, remote monitoring, intensive end-user training, and the creation of policies based on leading practices. Progent's veteran team of IT security solutions experts can assist you to design, configure and maintain a compliant cybersecurity solution that guards vital IT resources in networks that incorporate remote workers.

Firewall Integration Services for At-Home WorkersFirewalls allow you to create a network environment that can be safely utilized by local users and by telecommuters, mobile users, suppliers, clients, and the public.

Remote Security Monitoring and Management for TeleworkersRemote Endpoint Monitoring makes it possible to track the various devices utilized by an at-home workforce and either block or spot and mitigate the latest cyber attacks like ransomware. With ProSight Active Security Monitoring services, a small-footprint agent is put on every protected endpoint device, watching all activity and using state-of-the-art behavioral threat analysis from SentinelOne to detect zero-day attacks on arrival. When an attack is spotted, ProSight Active Security Monitoring immediately isolates the infected endpoint from the network to contain the malware. Because the ProSight ASM software agent is self-contained, endpoints stay protected even when they are disconnected from the Internet. Progent is a SentinelOne Partner, reseller, and integrator. For details about ProSight Active Security Monitoring, see remote endpoint security monitoring for an at-home workforce.

A broad selection of devices can be used as this second means of authentication including a smartphone or wearable, a hardware/software token, a landline telephone, etc. You can register several verification devices.
