Security for Remote Workers
Work-from-Home staff members commonly use their own devices and often work in an unsecured physical space. This increases their susceptibility to malware attacks and calls for careful deployment of firewalls, anti-malware tools, MFA-based identity verification, remote monitoring, thorough end-user training, and the creation of security policies based on best practices. Progent's veteran group of cybersecurity solutions experts can assist your business to design, deploy and manage an effective security solution that guards critical IT assets in networks that incorporate telecommuters.
Firewalls enable companies to build a network that can be securely utilized by on-premises users as well as by an at-home workforce, mobile workers, vendors, clients, and other stakeholders. Next-generation firewall devices allow you to assign and control different permissions to different groups of users and to scale your IT network and modify your cybersecurity posture as your business evolves and as network attacks become increasingly complex. Progent works with both new and older security appliances from all major vendors including Cisco, Palo Alto Networks, WatchGuard, Juniper, SonicWall and Fortinet.

Remote Endpoint Security Monitoring makes it easy to watch over the disparate devices used by an at-home workforce and either block or identify and respond to modern threats such as ransomware. With ProSight Active Security Monitoring services, a lightweight agent is put on each secured endpoint, monitoring all activity and utilizing advanced AI technology from SentinelOne to identify new threats before they can spread. When an attack is discovered, ProSight Active Security Monitoring instantly disconnects the impacted device from the corporate network to quarantine the threat. Since the ProSight Active Security Monitoring agent is self-contained, endpoints stay secure even if they are offline. Progent is a SentinelOne Partner, reseller, and integrator.

A wide range of devices can be used as this second means of authentication such as an iPhone or Android or watch, a hardware/software token, a landline phone, etc. You may register several validation devices.
