Security and Compliance for At-Home Workers
Work-from-Home employees typically use their own devices and often work in a poorly secured physical space. This situation multiplies their susceptibility to cyber attacks and calls for judicious configuration of corporate firewalls, anti-malware tools, MFA-based identity verification, remote monitoring, intensive user education, and the creation of security policies built on best practices. Progent's seasoned group of cybersecurity solutions experts can assist your business to plan, implement and manage an effective security solution that guards vital IT assets in networks that include at-home workers.
Firewalls allow companies to create a network that can be securely accessed by local users and by telecommuters, mobile workers, vendors, clients, and the public. Modern firewall devices allow you to assign and manage different permissions to different classes of users and to scale your network and adjust your security profile as your company evolves and as cyber threats become more complex. Progent supports both new and older firewall appliances from all major vendors including Cisco, Palo Alto Networks, Check Point, Juniper, SonicWall and Fortinet. To learn more about Progent's firewall configuration expertise, see firewall configuration and support services.
Online Endpoint Monitoring makes it easy to track the various devices used by at-home workers and either reject or identify and mitigate modern threats such as ransomware. With Progent's ProSight Active Security Monitoring (ASM) services, a small-footprint software agent is installed on each secured endpoint device, monitoring all activity and utilizing advanced behavioral threat analysis from SentinelOne to detect new threats at inception. When a cyberattack is spotted, ProSight Active Security Monitoring immediately isolates the impacted device from the corporate network to contain the threat. Since the ProSight Active Security Monitoring software agent is autonomous, endpoints stay protected even when they are not connected to the Internet. Progent is a SentinelOne Partner, reseller, and integrator. For more information about ProSight ASM, refer to remote endpoint monitoring for at-home workers.
Progent's Duo authentication Service Plans incorporate Cisco's Duo cloud technology to defend against stolen passwords by using two-factor authentication (2FA). Duo supports single-tap identity confirmation on iOS, Android, and other personal devices. Using Duo 2FA, whenever you log into a protected application and enter your password you are requested to verify your identity on a device that only you possess and that is accessed using a separate network channel. A wide selection of out-of-band devices can be used as this second means of authentication such as an iPhone or Android or watch, a hardware/software token, a landline telephone, etc. You may register several verification devices. For details about Duo identity authentication services, see Duo MFA two-factor authentication (2FA) services for an at-home workforce.
