Security and Compliance for Teleworkers
Work-from-Home (WFH) workers typically utilize their personal computing devices and usually operate in a poorly secured physical area. This increases their susceptibility to malware attacks and calls for careful deployment of firewalls, anti-malware tools, multi-factor authentication, remote endpoint monitoring, extensive end-user education, and the creation of policies built on leading practices. Progent's veteran roster of data security solutions experts can help your business to plan, configure and maintain an effective cybersecurity solution that protects vital IT resources in environments that include an at-home workforce.
Firewalls enable you to create a network environment that can be safely accessed by on-premises users as well as by teleworkers, mobile workers, vendors, customers, and other stakeholders. Modern firewall appliances allow you to configure and manage different permissions to different groups of users and to expand your network and adjust your security profile as your company evolves and as cyber threats grow increasingly sophisticated. Progent supports both new and older firewall devices from all leading manufacturers like Cisco, Palo Alto Networks, Check Point, Juniper, and Fortinet.

Remote Endpoint Security Monitoring makes it easy to track the disparate computers utilized by remote workers and either reject or spot and respond to the latest cyber attacks like ransomware. With Progent's ProSight Active Security Monitoring services, a small-footprint software agent is put on each protected endpoint device, monitoring all activity and utilizing advanced AI technology from SentinelOne to detect new attacks on arrival. When an attack is spotted, ProSight ASM instantly disconnects the impacted device from the network to contain the malware. Since the ProSight Active Security Monitoring software agent is self-contained, endpoint devices stay secure even when they are offline. Progent is a SentinelOne Partner, dealer, and integrator.

Progent's Duo authentication Services incorporate Cisco's Duo technology to defend against compromised passwords by using two-factor authentication. Duo supports one-tap identity confirmation with iOS, Google Android, and other out-of-band devices. With 2FA, when you log into a secured online account and give your password you are asked to verify your identity on a unit that only you possess and that uses a different network channel. A wide range of devices can be used as this added means of authentication including an iPhone or Android or watch, a hardware token, a landline telephone, etc. You can register multiple validation devices.
