Security and Compliance for At-Home Workers
At-home staff members commonly use their personal computers and usually work in a poorly secured physical environment. This increases their susceptibility to malware attacks and calls for careful configuration of firewalls, AV tools, MFA-based identity verification, remote endpoint monitoring, intensive user training, and the creation of policies built on best practices. Progent's seasoned roster of IT security support consultants can assist you to plan, deploy and maintain an effective cybersecurity solution that guards vital IT resources in networks that incorporate telecommuters.
Firewalls allow companies to build a network that can be securely utilized by local users and by telecommuters, mobile workers, vendors, customers, and the public. Next-generation firewall appliances permit you to configure and control different permissions to various groups of users and to scale your network and adjust your cybersecurity posture as your business evolves and as cyber threats become increasingly complex. Progent supports both current and older security devices from all major manufacturers like Cisco, Palo Alto Networks, Check Point, Juniper, and Fortinet.

Remote Endpoint Monitoring makes it easy to track the disparate devices utilized by teleworkers and either reject or identify and respond to the latest threats such as 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 behavioral threat analysis from SentinelOne to identify zero-day attacks before they can spread. When an attack is discovered, ProSight ASM instantly isolates the infected device from the network to contain the malware. Since the ProSight Active Security Monitoring agent is autonomous, endpoints remain protected even when they are offline. Progent is a SentinelOne Partner, dealer, and integrator. For more information about ProSight ASM, refer to remote endpoint monitoring for an at-home workforce.
Progent's Duo authentication Services utilize Cisco's Duo cloud technology to defend against stolen passwords by using two-factor authentication (2FA). Duo supports one-tap identity verification with iOS, Android, and other personal devices. Using Duo 2FA, whenever you sign into a protected online account and enter your password you are requested to verify who you are via a device that only you possess and that is accessed using a different ("out-of-band") network channel. A wide range of devices can be used for this second form of ID validation such as a smartphone or watch, a hardware token, a landline telephone, etc. You may designate multiple validation devices.
