Cybersecurity for Remote Workers
Work-from-Home (WFH) employees commonly use their personal computers and usually work in a poorly secured physical space. This situation increases their vulnerability to malware attacks and requires careful configuration of firewalls, anti-malware tools, MFA-based identity verification, remote monitoring, thorough end-user training, and the development of policies built on best practices. Progent's seasoned team of IT security support experts can assist you to plan, deploy and manage an effective cybersecurity solution that guards vital information resources in environments that incorporate remote workers.
Firewalls enable companies to create a network that can be safely utilized by on-premises users as well as by teleworkers, mobile employees, suppliers, clients, and the public. Modern firewall devices permit you to assign and manage appropriate access rights to various classes of users and to scale your IT network and modify your security profile as your business evolves and as network attacks become more complex. Progent works with both new and older firewall devices from all leading manufacturers like Cisco, Palo Alto Networks, WatchGuard, Juniper, and Fortinet.

Remote Endpoint Security Monitoring makes it easy to watch over the disparate computers used by teleworkers and either block or identify and mitigate modern threats like ransomware. With ProSight Active Security Monitoring (ASM) services, a small-footprint agent is put on each secured endpoint device, monitoring all activity and using advanced AI technology from SentinelOne to detect new attacks before they can spread. When a cyberattack is discovered, ProSight ASM instantly disconnects the impacted device from the corporate network to contain the threat. Because the ProSight Active Security Monitoring software agent is self-contained, endpoint devices stay secure even if they are disconnected from the Internet. Progent is a SentinelOne Partner, dealer, and integrator. For more information about ProSight Active Security Monitoring, refer to remote endpoint monitoring for teleworkers.
Progent's Duo MFA Managed Services utilize Cisco's Duo cloud technology to defend against compromised passwords through the use of two-factor authentication (2FA). Duo enables single-tap identity verification with iOS, Google Android, and other personal devices. With 2FA, whenever you sign into a protected application and give your password you are requested to confirm who you are on a unit that only you possess and that is accessed using a different network channel. A wide selection of devices can be utilized as this added means of authentication such as an iPhone or Android or wearable, a hardware/software token, a landline telephone, etc. You can register several verification devices. To learn more about ProSight Duo identity authentication services, refer to Duo MFA two-factor authentication (2FA) services for at-home workers.
Security Audits can assess the vulnerability of your network to all types of outside and local security threats for a network that includes an at-home workforce.
