Security for At-Home Workers
At-home workers commonly use their own devices and usually work in an unsecured physical area. This situation increases their susceptibility to malware threats and requires careful configuration of corporate firewalls, anti-malware tools, multi-factor authentication, remote endpoint monitoring, intensive user education, and the development of security policies built on best practices. Progent's seasoned group of cybersecurity solutions consultants can help you to plan, implement and manage a compliant security solution that guards critical information assets in networks that incorporate an at-home workforce.

Firewall Integration Services for At-Home WorkersFirewalls enable companies to create a network that can be securely accessed by local users and by an at-home workforce, mobile workers, vendors, clients, and other stakeholders. Next-generation firewall devices permit you to configure and manage appropriate access rights to various classes of users and to expand your network and modify your security as your company evolves and as cyber threats become increasingly complex. Progent supports both new and legacy security appliances from all leading vendors like Cisco, Palo Alto Networks, Check Point, Juniper, SonicWall and Fortinet.

Remote Security Monitoring and Management for TeleworkersRemote Endpoint Monitoring makes it possible to track the disparate devices used by teleworkers and either block or spot and respond to modern threats such as ransomware. With Progent's ProSight Active Security Monitoring (ASM) services, a lightweight agent is put on every protected endpoint device, monitoring all activity and using state-of-the-art machine learning from SentinelOne to identify new attacks at inception. When an attack is spotted, ProSight ASM immediately disconnects the impacted device from the corporate network to quarantine the malware. Since the ProSight Active Security Monitoring software agent is autonomous, endpoints remain protected even when they are offline. Progent is a SentinelOne Partner, dealer, and integrator. For more information about ProSight ASM, go to remote endpoint monitoring for an at-home workforce.

Two-factor Authentication (2FA) Services for TelecommutersProgent's Duo authentication Managed Services utilize Cisco's Duo technology to defend against stolen passwords through the use of two-factor authentication (2FA).

A wide selection of devices can be used for this second means of authentication including an iPhone or Android or wearable, a hardware token, a landline telephone, etc. You can register several validation devices.
