Cybersecurity for At-Home Workers
At-home workers commonly utilize their own computing devices and often operate in an unsecured physical area. This increases their susceptibility to malware threats and calls for judicious configuration of corporate firewalls, anti-malware tools, MFA-based identity verification, remote endpoint monitoring, thorough user education, and the creation of policies based on leading practices. Progent's seasoned roster of data security support consultants can help you to design, deploy and manage an effective security solution that guards critical information assets in networks that incorporate telecommuters.
Firewalls enable companies to build a network environment that can be safely utilized by on-premises users as well as by an at-home workforce, mobile employees, vendors, clients, and other stakeholders. Next-generation firewall devices allow you to configure and manage different access rights to various groups of users and to expand your network and modify your security as your business evolves and as network attacks grow increasingly sophisticated. Progent supports both new and legacy firewall devices from all leading vendors including Cisco, Palo Alto Networks, WatchGuard, Juniper, SonicWall and Fortinet.

Remote Endpoint Monitoring makes it easy to track the various devices utilized by remote workers and either block or spot and mitigate the latest cyber attacks such as ransomware. With Progent's ProSight Active Security Monitoring (ASM) services, a small-footprint agent is put on each protected endpoint, monitoring all activity and utilizing state-of-the-art machine learning and full execution context from SentinelOne to identify new attacks on arrival. When a cyberattack is spotted, ProSight Active Security Monitoring immediately isolates the targeted endpoint device from the network to contain the threat. Because the ProSight Active Security Monitoring software agent is self-contained, endpoint devices stay protected even if they are offline. Progent is a SentinelOne Partner, reseller, and integrator.

A wide selection of devices can be utilized for this second means of ID validation such as an iPhone or Android or watch, a hardware token, a landline phone, etc. You can register multiple validation devices.
