Security and Compliance for Telecommuters
Work-from-Home (WFH) workers typically utilize their own devices and usually operate in an unsecured physical environment. This situation multiplies their vulnerability to malware attacks and calls for careful configuration of firewalls, anti-malware tools, MFA-based identity verification, remote endpoint monitoring, intensive end-user training, and the creation of security policies based on leading practices. Progent's veteran roster of IT security support experts can help you to design, configure and maintain an effective security solution that protects critical information assets in environments that incorporate at-home workers.
Firewalls enable companies to create a network that can be securely accessed by on-premises users as well as by an at-home workforce, mobile workers, suppliers, customers, and the public. Modern firewall devices permit you to configure and manage different access rights to different groups of users and to scale your network and modify your cybersecurity posture as your business evolves and as network attacks grow increasingly complex. Progent works with both new and legacy security appliances from all leading manufacturers including Cisco, Palo Alto Networks, Check Point, Juniper, and Fortinet.

Remote Endpoint Monitoring makes it possible to watch over the various computers utilized by remote workers and either reject or identify and mitigate the latest cyber attacks such as ransomware. With Progent's ProSight Active Security Monitoring services, a lightweight software agent is installed on each secured endpoint device, watching all activity and using state-of-the-art AI technology from SentinelOne to detect zero-day attacks before they can spread. When an attack is discovered, ProSight ASM instantly isolates the infected endpoint from the network to contain the threat. Since the ProSight ASM agent is self-contained, endpoints remain protected even if they are not connected to the Internet. Progent is a SentinelOne Partner, dealer, and integrator. For details about ProSight Active Security Monitoring, see remote endpoint security monitoring for teleworkers.
Progent's Duo authentication Managed Services utilize Cisco's Duo cloud technology to defend against stolen passwords by using two-factor authentication (2FA). Duo enables one-tap identity confirmation on iOS, Google Android, and other personal devices. Using Duo 2FA, when you log into a secured online account and give your password you are requested to verify who you are on a unit that only you have and that is accessed using a separate network channel. A broad selection of out-of-band devices can be used for this added form of authentication including a smartphone or wearable, a hardware/software token, a landline telephone, etc. You may designate multiple validation devices. To find out more about Duo identity authentication services, refer to Cisco Duo MFA two-factor authentication services for at-home workers.
