Security and Compliance for At-Home Workers
At-home employees typically utilize their personal devices and usually work in a poorly secured physical space. This situation increases their vulnerability to malware attacks and calls for judicious configuration of corporate firewalls, anti-malware tools, multi-factor authentication, remote monitoring, thorough user training, and the development of policies built on leading practices. Progent's seasoned roster of cybersecurity solutions experts can help you to plan, deploy and manage a compliant security solution that protects critical information resources in environments that incorporate telecommuters.

Firewall Integration Services for At-Home WorkersFirewalls enable you to create a network that can be securely utilized by on-premises users as well as by teleworkers, mobile employees, vendors, clients, and the public. Modern firewall appliances permit you to assign and control different permissions to various classes of users and to scale your network and adjust your security profile as your business evolves and as cyber threats become increasingly sophisticated. Progent supports both current and older firewall appliances from all major manufacturers like Cisco, Palo Alto Networks, WatchGuard, Juniper, SonicWall and Fortinet.

Remote Security Monitoring and Management for TelecommutersRemote Endpoint Security Monitoring makes it possible to watch over the various computers used by remote workers and either block or identify and respond to modern cyber attacks such as ransomware. With ProSight Active Security Monitoring (ASM) services, a small-footprint agent is installed on each protected endpoint, monitoring all activity and using advanced AI technology from SentinelOne to detect new attacks on arrival. When an attack is discovered, ProSight Active Security Monitoring immediately disconnects the infected endpoint from the network to quarantine the malware. Because the ProSight Active Security Monitoring agent is autonomous, endpoint devices remain secure even when they are offline. Progent is a SentinelOne Partner, reseller, and integrator.

Two-factor Authentication (2FA) Services for TeleworkersProgent's Duo authentication Managed Services utilize Cisco's Duo technology to defend against stolen passwords by using two-factor authentication (2FA). Duo supports single-tap identity verification on iOS, Google Android, and other personal devices. Using 2FA, when you log into a secured application and enter your password you are requested to verify your identity via a unit that only you have and that is accessed using a separate network channel. A broad range of out-of-band devices can be utilized for this added form of authentication such as a smartphone or watch, a hardware/software token, a landline telephone, etc. You may register multiple validation devices. For details about Duo two-factor identity validation services, see Duo MFA two-factor authentication (2FA) services for telecommuters.
