Security and Compliance for Telecommuters
Work-from-Home workers commonly use their own computers and often work in a poorly secured physical space. This multiplies their vulnerability to cyber threats and requires judicious deployment of firewalls, AV tools, multi-factor authentication, remote endpoint monitoring, thorough end-user training, and the creation of policies built on leading practices. Progent's veteran team of data security solutions experts can help you to plan, deploy and maintain a compliant security solution that protects vital IT resources in networks that include at-home workers.

Firewall Integration Services for At-Home WorkersFirewalls allow you to create a network that can be safely accessed by local users as well as by teleworkers, mobile employees, suppliers, clients, and the public. Modern firewall appliances permit you to assign and manage different permissions to various groups of users and to scale your network and adjust your security profile as your company evolves and as network attacks grow more sophisticated. Progent works with both new and older security appliances from all leading manufacturers including Cisco, Palo Alto Networks, WatchGuard, Juniper, SonicWall and Fortinet.

Remote Security Monitoring for TelecommutersRemote Endpoint Security Monitoring makes it possible to watch over the disparate computers utilized by at-home workers and either reject or spot and mitigate modern cyber attacks like ransomware. With ProSight Active Security Monitoring (ASM) services, a small-footprint software agent is put on every secured endpoint device, monitoring all activity and using advanced machine learning from SentinelOne to detect new threats before they can spread. When an attack is spotted, ProSight Active Security Monitoring immediately isolates the targeted device from the corporate network to contain the threat. Since the ProSight Active Security Monitoring agent is autonomous, endpoints stay protected even when they are not connected to the Internet. Progent is a SentinelOne Partner, reseller, and integrator. To learn more about ProSight ASM, visit remote endpoint security monitoring for remote workers.

Two-factor Authentication (2FA) Services for Remote WorkersProgent's Duo authentication Managed Services utilize Cisco's Duo cloud technology to protect against compromised passwords through the use of two-factor authentication. Duo supports one-tap identity verification on iOS, Google Android, and other personal devices. With Duo 2FA, whenever you sign into a secured application and give your password you are requested to confirm who you are on a device that only you possess and that is accessed using a separate network channel. A wide selection of out-of-band devices can be used as this added means of ID validation such as a smartphone or wearable, a hardware/software token, a landline telephone, etc. You can register several verification devices. To find out more about ProSight Duo identity authentication services, refer to Cisco Duo MFA two-factor authentication (2FA) services for at-home workers.
