Security and Compliance for Teleworkers
At-home workers commonly utilize their personal computing devices and usually operate in an unsecured physical space. This situation increases their susceptibility to malware threats and requires judicious deployment of corporate firewalls, AV tools, multi-factor authentication, remote monitoring, thorough end-user training, and the development of policies built on leading practices. Progent's veteran roster of cybersecurity support consultants can assist you to plan, configure and manage a compliant security solution that guards critical information assets in networks that include at-home workers.
Firewalls enable you to create a network environment that can be securely accessed by local users and by telecommuters, mobile employees, suppliers, customers, and other stakeholders. Next-generation firewall appliances allow you to assign and control appropriate access rights to various groups of users and to scale your IT network and modify your cybersecurity posture as your company evolves and as network attacks become increasingly complex. Progent works with both current and legacy firewall appliances from all major vendors like Cisco, Palo Alto Networks, Check Point, Juniper, and Fortinet.

Online Endpoint Monitoring makes it possible to track the various devices utilized by telecommuters and either block or spot and mitigate the latest threats such as ransomware. With ProSight Active Security Monitoring services, a lightweight agent is installed on every secured endpoint device, monitoring all activity and using advanced AI technology from SentinelOne to identify zero-day attacks before they can spread. When a cyberattack is discovered, ProSight Active Security Monitoring immediately isolates the impacted device from the corporate network to quarantine the threat. Because the ProSight Active Security Monitoring software agent is self-contained, endpoints stay secure even when they are disconnected from the Internet. Progent is a SentinelOne Partner, reseller, and integrator. To find out more about ProSight Active Security Monitoring, refer to remote endpoint monitoring for remote workers.
Progent's Duo MFA Services incorporate Cisco's Duo technology to protect against password theft through the use of two-factor authentication. Duo enables single-tap identity confirmation on iOS, Android, and other out-of-band devices. With 2FA, when you sign into a protected application and give your password you are requested to verify who you are via a unit that only you possess and that is accessed using a different network channel. A wide range of out-of-band devices can be utilized for this added means of authentication including an iPhone or Android or watch, a hardware token, a landline phone, etc. You may designate multiple validation devices.
