Security for At-Home Workers
At-home workers typically utilize their own computing devices and often work in a poorly secured physical environment. This situation multiplies their vulnerability to cyber threats and calls for judicious deployment of firewalls, AV tools, multi-factor authentication, remote endpoint monitoring, extensive user education, and the creation of security policies built on leading practices. Progent's veteran team of data security support consultants can help your business to design, configure and maintain an effective security solution that guards critical information resources in networks that include remote workers.
Firewalls allow companies to create a network environment that can be securely utilized by on-premises users as well as by telecommuters, mobile workers, vendors, clients, and other stakeholders. Modern firewall appliances permit you to configure and manage different permissions to different classes of users and to expand your network and adjust your security profile as your company evolves and as cyber threats grow more sophisticated. Progent works with both new and older security devices from all major vendors including Cisco, Palo Alto Networks, WatchGuard, Juniper, and Fortinet.

Remote Endpoint Monitoring makes it possible to track the disparate computers used by teleworkers and either reject or identify and mitigate modern threats like ransomware. With Progent's ProSight Active Security Monitoring services, a lightweight agent is installed on each protected endpoint device, watching all activity and utilizing advanced machine learning and full execution context from SentinelOne to identify new threats before they can spread. When a cyberattack is discovered, ProSight ASM instantly disconnects the infected device from the network to quarantine the threat. Because the ProSight Active Security Monitoring agent is autonomous, endpoint devices stay secure even if they are offline. Progent is a SentinelOne Partner, dealer, and integrator. For more information about ProSight ASM, refer to remote endpoint security monitoring for at-home workers.
Progent's Duo authentication Services utilize Cisco's Duo technology to protect against stolen passwords through the use of two-factor authentication (2FA). Duo supports one-tap identity verification on Apple iOS, Android, and other personal devices. With 2FA, whenever you log into a secured application and give your password you are asked to verify your identity on a unit that only you possess and that uses a different ("out-of-band") network channel. A broad selection of devices can be used as this second means of ID validation such as an iPhone or Android or watch, a hardware/software token, a landline phone, etc. You may register several validation devices. To find out more about Duo two-factor identity authentication services, refer to Duo MFA two-factor authentication services for teleworkers.
