Security and Compliance for Teleworkers
Work-from-Home (WFH) staff members commonly utilize their own computers and usually operate in an unsecured physical environment. This multiplies their vulnerability to malware attacks and requires judicious deployment of firewalls, anti-malware tools, MFA-based identity verification, remote endpoint monitoring, intensive end-user training, and the development of policies based on leading practices. Progent's seasoned team of cybersecurity support experts can help you to plan, implement and manage a compliant cybersecurity solution that guards vital IT assets in environments that incorporate at-home workers.
Firewalls allow you to build a network environment that can be securely accessed by local users as well as by teleworkers, mobile employees, suppliers, clients, and the public. Next-generation firewall appliances allow you to configure and manage appropriate permissions to different classes of users and to scale your IT network and adjust your cybersecurity posture as your business evolves and as network attacks become increasingly sophisticated. Progent supports both current and older security devices from all major manufacturers including Cisco, Palo Alto Networks, Check Point, Juniper, and Fortinet.

Remote Endpoint Monitoring makes it easy to watch over the various computers used by remote workers and either block or identify and respond to the latest cyber attacks like ransomware. With ProSight Active Security Monitoring services, a lightweight software agent is put on every secured endpoint device, watching all activity and using state-of-the-art machine learning from SentinelOne to detect new threats at inception. When an attack is spotted, ProSight Active Security Monitoring instantly disconnects the impacted device from the network to contain the malware. Since the ProSight Active Security Monitoring software agent is self-contained, endpoints remain protected 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, visit remote endpoint security monitoring for at-home workers.
Progent's Duo MFA Services utilize Cisco's Duo cloud technology to protect against compromised passwords by using two-factor authentication (2FA). Duo supports one-tap identity verification on Apple iOS, Google Android, and other out-of-band devices. With Duo 2FA, when you sign into a secured online account and enter your password you are requested to verify your identity via a unit that only you have and that is accessed using a different ("out-of-band") network channel. A wide range of devices can be used as this second means of ID validation including an iPhone or Android or watch, a hardware token, a landline telephone, etc. You can designate multiple verification devices. For more information about Duo two-factor identity authentication services, see Duo MFA two-factor authentication services for telecommuters.
