Cybersecurity for Teleworkers
Work-from-Home (WFH) workers commonly use their own devices and often operate in a poorly secured physical environment. This situation multiplies their susceptibility to malware attacks and calls for careful deployment of firewalls, anti-malware tools, MFA-based identity verification, remote endpoint monitoring, intensive user education, and the creation of policies built on leading practices. Progent's veteran team of cybersecurity support experts can help your business to plan, configure and manage a compliant security solution that guards critical IT resources in networks that include telecommuters.
Firewalls enable companies to create a network that can be safely accessed by local users as well as by at-home workers, mobile workers, suppliers, customers, and other stakeholders. Modern firewall devices allow you to configure and manage appropriate access rights to various groups of users and to scale your IT network and modify your security profile as your business evolves and as cyber threats grow increasingly sophisticated. Progent supports both current and older security appliances from all major manufacturers including Cisco, Palo Alto Networks, Check Point, Juniper, and Fortinet.

Remote Endpoint Monitoring makes it possible to watch over the disparate devices used by an at-home workforce and either block or spot and respond to the latest cyber attacks such as ransomware. With Progent's ProSight Active Security Monitoring services, a lightweight agent is installed on every protected endpoint, monitoring all activity and utilizing advanced AI technology from SentinelOne to identify zero-day attacks at inception. When an attack is discovered, ProSight Active Security Monitoring instantly disconnects the targeted endpoint from the corporate network to contain the threat. Because the ProSight Active Security Monitoring software agent is autonomous, endpoints stay secure even when they are not connected to the Internet. Progent is a SentinelOne Partner, dealer, and integrator. To find out more about ProSight ASM, see remote endpoint security monitoring for telecommuters.
Progent's Duo MFA Service Plans incorporate Cisco's Duo technology to protect against stolen passwords by using two-factor authentication. Duo enables one-tap identity confirmation with iOS, Google Android, and other personal devices. With 2FA, whenever you log into a secured application and give your password you are requested to verify who you are on a unit that only you possess and that uses a different network channel. A wide selection of devices can be utilized for this added means of authentication including an iPhone or Android or watch, a hardware/software token, a landline phone, etc. You may register multiple verification devices. For more information about ProSight Duo identity authentication services, see Cisco Duo MFA two-factor authentication (2FA) services for at-home workers.
