Cybersecurity for Telecommuters
At-home employees commonly use their own computing devices and usually operate in an unsecured physical area. This situation increases their vulnerability to cyber threats and calls for careful configuration of firewalls, anti-malware tools, multi-factor authentication, remote monitoring, extensive user education, and the creation of security policies built on best practices. Progent's seasoned team of IT security solutions consultants can help your business to design, implement and maintain an effective security solution that guards critical IT resources in networks that incorporate an at-home workforce.
Firewalls enable companies to build a network environment that can be securely accessed by local users and by an at-home workforce, mobile employees, suppliers, clients, and other stakeholders. Next-generation firewall appliances permit you to configure and control appropriate access rights to various groups of users and to scale your IT network and adjust your cybersecurity posture as your company evolves and as network attacks become increasingly sophisticated. Progent supports both new and legacy security appliances from all major manufacturers like Cisco, Palo Alto Networks, WatchGuard, Juniper, and Fortinet.

Remote Endpoint Monitoring makes it easy to watch over the disparate devices used by an at-home workforce and either reject or spot and mitigate modern threats such as ransomware. With Progent's ProSight Active Security Monitoring (ASM) services, a small-footprint agent is put on every secured endpoint, monitoring all activity and utilizing state-of-the-art machine learning and full execution context from SentinelOne to identify new attacks before they can spread. When an attack is spotted, ProSight Active Security Monitoring instantly disconnects the infected endpoint device from the corporate network to quarantine the threat. Since the ProSight ASM agent is self-contained, endpoints stay secure even when they are not connected to the Internet. Progent is a SentinelOne Partner, reseller, and integrator. To find out more about ProSight Active Security Monitoring, see remote endpoint security monitoring for remote workers.
Progent's Duo MFA Service Plans incorporate Cisco's Duo cloud technology to defend against compromised passwords through the use of two-factor authentication (2FA). Duo enables single-tap identity confirmation on iOS, Google Android, and other personal devices. Using 2FA, when you log into a secured online account and enter your password you are asked to confirm who you are on a unit that only you possess and that uses a separate network channel. A wide selection of out-of-band devices can be used as this added means of ID validation such as an iPhone or Android or watch, a hardware/software token, a landline telephone, etc. You can register several verification devices. To learn more about Duo identity authentication services, see Cisco Duo MFA two-factor authentication (2FA) services for an at-home workforce.
Security Audits can evaluate the exposure of your network to all classes of external and local security attacks for a network that incorporates at-home workers. Progent can run online, automated security inventory scanning for quickly and economically detecting a wide variety of security gaps that can be found via the Internet.
