Security and Compliance for Remote Workers
Work-from-Home (WFH) staff members commonly utilize their personal devices and often operate in an unsecured physical environment. This situation increases their susceptibility to malware attacks and calls for careful deployment of corporate firewalls, AV tools, MFA-based identity verification, remote endpoint monitoring, extensive end-user education, and the creation of security policies built on best practices. Progent's veteran roster of IT security support experts can help your business to plan, configure and maintain a compliant security solution that guards critical information assets in networks that include an at-home workforce.
Firewalls enable you to create a network that can be securely accessed by on-premises users as well as by teleworkers, mobile users, suppliers, customers, and other stakeholders. Modern firewall devices allow you to assign and manage appropriate permissions to different groups of users and to scale your network and adjust your security as your company evolves and as network attacks become increasingly complex. Progent works with both current and older security devices from all leading vendors including Cisco, Palo Alto Networks, WatchGuard, Juniper, SonicWall and Fortinet.

Online Endpoint Security Monitoring makes it possible to track the various devices utilized by telecommuters and either block or spot and mitigate the latest cyber attacks like ransomware. With ProSight Active Security Monitoring (ASM) services, a lightweight software agent is installed on every secured endpoint device, watching all activity and utilizing state-of-the-art AI technology from SentinelOne to identify zero-day threats before they can spread. When a cyberattack is spotted, ProSight Active Security Monitoring immediately disconnects the targeted endpoint device from the corporate network to contain the threat. Because the ProSight Active Security Monitoring agent is autonomous, endpoints remain protected even if they are not connected to the Internet. Progent is a SentinelOne Partner, dealer, and integrator. To learn more about ProSight Active Security Monitoring, refer to remote endpoint monitoring for telecommuters.
Progent's Duo authentication Managed Services utilize Cisco's Duo technology to defend against password theft by using two-factor authentication. Duo supports single-tap identity verification with Apple iOS, Android, and other out-of-band devices. Using 2FA, whenever you log into a protected application and enter your password you are requested to confirm who you are via a unit that only you possess and that is accessed using a separate network channel. A broad selection of out-of-band devices can be utilized as this second form of authentication such as an iPhone or Android or wearable, a hardware/software token, a landline telephone, etc. You can designate several verification devices. To learn more about Duo identity authentication services, go to Duo MFA two-factor authentication services for telecommuters.
