Security and Compliance for At-Home Workers
Work-from-Home (WFH) workers commonly use their personal computers and often operate in a poorly secured physical environment. This increases their susceptibility to cyber attacks and calls for judicious configuration of firewalls, AV tools, MFA-based identity verification, remote endpoint monitoring, intensive end-user education, and the development of security policies based on best practices. Progent's seasoned team of IT security support experts can help your business to plan, implement and manage a compliant cybersecurity solution that guards vital IT resources in environments that incorporate remote workers.
Firewalls enable you to create a network that can be safely accessed by on-premises users and by at-home workers, mobile employees, vendors, customers, and the public. Modern firewall appliances allow you to configure and control different permissions to different classes of users and to scale your IT network and adjust your security as your company evolves and as network attacks grow increasingly complex. Progent works with both new and older security appliances from all major manufacturers like Cisco, Palo Alto Networks, WatchGuard, Juniper, SonicWall and Fortinet.

Remote Endpoint Security Monitoring makes it possible to watch over the disparate devices used by telecommuters and either block or identify and mitigate modern cyber attacks such as ransomware. With ProSight Active Security Monitoring services, a small-footprint software agent is installed on every secured endpoint, watching all activity and using advanced behavioral threat analysis from SentinelOne to identify new attacks at inception. When an attack is spotted, ProSight ASM immediately disconnects the infected endpoint from the corporate network to quarantine the threat. Since the ProSight Active Security Monitoring agent is self-contained, endpoints stay protected even when they are not connected to the Internet. Progent is a SentinelOne Partner, dealer, and integrator. For details about ProSight Active Security Monitoring, go to remote endpoint monitoring for telecommuters.
Progent's Duo authentication Service Plans utilize Cisco's Duo technology to defend against compromised passwords through the use of two-factor authentication (2FA). Duo supports single-tap identity confirmation on Apple iOS, Android, and other out-of-band devices. Using Duo 2FA, when you log into a protected online account and give your password you are asked to confirm who you are on a device that only you have and that is accessed using a different ("out-of-band") network channel. A wide range of out-of-band devices can be used as this added means of ID validation including an iPhone or Android or wearable, a hardware token, a landline phone, etc. You can register several verification devices. For more information about ProSight Duo identity validation services, refer to Cisco Duo MFA two-factor authentication (2FA) services for an at-home workforce.
Security Audits can assess the exposure of your network to all classes of outside and internal security threats for a network that incorporates telecommuters. Progent can run remote, automated security inventory scanning for quickly and affordably detecting a broad range of security gaps that can be surfaced via the Internet. Progent's endpoint security audit consulting services, which can be provided by network security experts with top certifications such as CISM, ISSAP, and GIAC, can help your business to audit your procedures and governance policies and assess your network infrastructure to allow you to implement top-level security for your remote workers.
