Security for Remote Workers
Work-from-Home (WFH) employees typically utilize their personal computers and usually work in a poorly secured physical area. This multiplies their vulnerability to malware attacks and requires judicious deployment of firewalls, AV tools, multi-factor authentication, remote monitoring, thorough end-user education, and the development of security policies built on leading practices. Progent's seasoned group of data security solutions experts can help your business to plan, configure and manage an effective security solution that guards critical IT assets in networks that incorporate at-home workers.
Firewalls enable companies to create a network that can be safely utilized by local users and by an at-home workforce, mobile employees, vendors, clients, and other stakeholders. Next-generation firewall devices permit you to assign and control different permissions to different classes of users and to expand your IT network and adjust your security profile as your company evolves and as network attacks become more complex. Progent works with both new and older firewall devices from all major vendors including Cisco, Palo Alto Networks, Check Point, Juniper, SonicWall and Fortinet.

Online Endpoint Monitoring makes it possible to track the various computers used by an at-home workforce and either block or identify and mitigate the latest cyber attacks such as ransomware. With Progent's ProSight Active Security Monitoring services, a lightweight agent is put on each secured endpoint, watching all activity and utilizing advanced machine learning from SentinelOne to identify new attacks before they can spread. When an attack is discovered, ProSight ASM immediately isolates the targeted endpoint device from the corporate network to quarantine the malware. Since the ProSight ASM agent is autonomous, endpoint devices stay secure even if they are offline. Progent is a SentinelOne Partner, dealer, and integrator. For details about ProSight Active Security Monitoring, refer to remote endpoint monitoring for at-home workers.
Progent's Duo authentication Service Plans utilize Cisco's Duo technology to protect against password theft by using two-factor authentication (2FA). Duo supports one-tap identity verification with Apple iOS, Google Android, and other personal devices. Using 2FA, whenever you log into a secured application and enter your password you are asked to confirm your identity via a device that only you have and that is accessed using a different network channel. A broad range of devices can be utilized for this second means of authentication including a smartphone or watch, a hardware/software token, a landline telephone, etc. You may register several verification devices. For more information about ProSight Duo two-factor identity authentication services, see Duo MFA two-factor authentication services for telecommuters.
