Cybersecurity for Remote Workers
Work-from-Home (WFH) workers typically use their personal computers and often operate in an unsecured physical area. This multiplies their susceptibility to cyber threats and calls for judicious deployment of corporate firewalls, AV tools, multi-factor authentication, remote endpoint monitoring, thorough end-user training, and the creation of security policies built on best practices. Progent's veteran team of data security support experts can help you to plan, configure and manage an effective security solution that protects vital information resources in networks that incorporate remote workers.
Firewalls allow you to build a network that can be securely utilized by on-premises users as well as by telecommuters, mobile workers, vendors, customers, and the public. Modern firewall devices allow you to assign and manage different permissions to various groups of users and to expand your network and adjust your cybersecurity posture as your business evolves and as network attacks become increasingly complex. Progent supports both new and older firewall devices from all leading vendors including Cisco, Palo Alto Networks, Check Point, Juniper, and Fortinet.

Remote Endpoint Security Monitoring makes it possible to watch over the disparate computers utilized by an at-home workforce and either block or spot and respond to modern cyber attacks like ransomware. With ProSight Active Security Monitoring (ASM) services, a small-footprint agent is installed on every protected endpoint, watching all activity and utilizing state-of-the-art machine learning and full execution context from SentinelOne to identify zero-day threats before they can spread. When a cyberattack is spotted, ProSight Active Security Monitoring instantly disconnects the infected device from the corporate network to contain the threat. Because the ProSight ASM software agent is self-contained, endpoints stay secure even when they are not connected to the Internet. Progent is a SentinelOne Partner, reseller, and integrator.

Progent's Duo authentication Services utilize Cisco's Duo cloud technology to defend against password theft through the use of two-factor authentication. Duo supports single-tap identity confirmation on Apple iOS, Google Android, and other personal devices. Using Duo 2FA, whenever you log into a secured online account and enter your password you are asked to confirm who you are on a device that only you possess and that uses a different ("out-of-band") network channel. A wide range of out-of-band devices can be used for this added means of authentication including an iPhone or Android or watch, a hardware/software token, a landline telephone, etc. You can register multiple validation devices. To find out more about ProSight Duo identity validation services, go to Cisco Duo MFA two-factor authentication services for at-home workers.
