Cybersecurity for Telecommuters
Work-from-Home (WFH) employees commonly use their own computing devices and often operate in an unsecured physical area. This increases their vulnerability to cyber threats and requires careful configuration of corporate firewalls, AV tools, multi-factor authentication, remote monitoring, intensive user training, and the development of security policies based on best practices. Progent's seasoned team of IT security solutions consultants can assist your business to design, implement and manage a compliant cybersecurity solution that guards vital information resources in environments that incorporate remote workers.
Firewalls enable companies to build a network environment that can be securely utilized by on-premises users and by at-home workers, mobile workers, vendors, clients, and the public. Modern firewall appliances allow you to assign and manage different permissions to different classes of users and to scale your network and modify your cybersecurity posture as your business evolves and as network attacks become increasingly complex. Progent works with both new and older firewall appliances from all major manufacturers including Cisco, Palo Alto Networks, Check Point, Juniper, SonicWall and Fortinet.

Remote Endpoint Monitoring makes it easy to watch over the various devices used by remote workers and either block or spot and mitigate the latest threats such as ransomware. With ProSight Active Security Monitoring services, a lightweight software agent is installed on each secured endpoint, monitoring all activity and using advanced machine learning from SentinelOne to detect new threats at inception. When an attack is spotted, ProSight Active Security Monitoring immediately isolates the infected endpoint device from the corporate network to contain the threat. Because the ProSight Active Security Monitoring software agent is self-contained, endpoints remain protected even when they are not connected to the Internet. Progent is a SentinelOne Partner, reseller, and integrator. For details about ProSight Active Security Monitoring, refer to remote endpoint security monitoring for teleworkers.
Progent's Duo authentication Managed Services incorporate Cisco's Duo cloud technology to defend against password theft by using two-factor authentication. Duo supports single-tap identity confirmation with Apple iOS, Google Android, and other out-of-band devices. Using 2FA, whenever you sign into a protected application and give your password you are requested to confirm your identity via a device that only you possess and that uses a different ("out-of-band") network channel. A wide selection of devices can be utilized as this second form of authentication including a smartphone or watch, a hardware/software token, a landline phone, etc. You can designate several validation devices. For more information about ProSight Duo two-factor identity authentication services, go to Cisco Duo MFA two-factor authentication (2FA) services for teleworkers.
