Security and Compliance for Remote Workers
Work-from-Home (WFH) employees typically utilize their personal computers and often operate in a poorly secured physical area. This situation increases their susceptibility to cyber threats and requires judicious configuration of firewalls, AV tools, multi-factor authentication, remote endpoint monitoring, intensive end-user education, and the development of policies based on leading practices. Progent's seasoned team of IT security solutions experts can assist you to plan, deploy and manage a compliant security solution that protects vital IT assets in environments that incorporate at-home workers.
Firewalls allow companies to build a network that can be safely utilized by local users as well as by an at-home workforce, mobile workers, vendors, clients, and the public. Modern firewall appliances permit you to assign and control different access rights to various groups of users and to scale your IT network and modify your cybersecurity posture as your company evolves and as cyber threats become more complex. Progent supports both current and older security devices from all leading vendors including Cisco, Palo Alto Networks, WatchGuard, Juniper, and Fortinet.

Remote Endpoint Monitoring makes it easy to watch over the disparate computers used by at-home workers and either block or spot and respond to modern cyber attacks like ransomware. With Progent's ProSight Active Security Monitoring (ASM) services, a lightweight software agent is put on each secured endpoint, monitoring all activity and utilizing state-of-the-art AI technology from SentinelOne to identify new attacks at inception. When an attack is spotted, ProSight Active Security Monitoring immediately isolates the infected endpoint from the network to quarantine the malware. Since the ProSight ASM agent is self-contained, endpoints remain secure even when they are not connected to the Internet. Progent is a SentinelOne Partner, dealer, and integrator. For more information about ProSight ASM, visit remote endpoint security monitoring for telecommuters.
Progent's Duo authentication Service Plans utilize Cisco's Duo cloud technology to defend against stolen passwords by using two-factor authentication. Duo enables single-tap identity verification with iOS, Google Android, and other out-of-band devices. Using 2FA, whenever you sign into a protected online account and enter your password you are requested to confirm your identity via a unit that only you have and that is accessed using a separate network channel. A broad selection of out-of-band devices can be utilized as this second form of ID validation such as an iPhone or Android or watch, a hardware/software token, a landline phone, etc. You can register multiple validation devices. For more information about ProSight Duo identity validation services, see Duo MFA two-factor authentication services for remote workers.
Security Audits can evaluate the vulnerability of your network to all classes of outside and local security threats for a network that incorporates at-home workers.
