Security and Compliance for Telecommuters
At-home workers typically use their own computing devices and often operate in a poorly secured physical space. This multiplies their vulnerability to cyber attacks and requires judicious deployment of firewalls, AV tools, MFA-based identity verification, remote endpoint monitoring, extensive user education, and the creation of security policies based on best practices. Progent's seasoned group of data security solutions experts can help your business to design, configure and manage an effective cybersecurity solution that guards critical information resources in environments that include remote workers.

Firewall Integration Services for At-Home WorkersFirewalls enable companies to build a network that can be securely utilized by on-premises users as well as by telecommuters, mobile employees, vendors, customers, and the public. Modern firewall devices allow you to configure and manage appropriate access rights to different classes of users and to expand your network and modify your security as your business evolves and as cyber threats become more complex. Progent works with both current and older security appliances from all major vendors like Cisco, Palo Alto Networks, Check Point, Juniper, SonicWall and Fortinet.

Remote Endpoint Monitoring and Management for TelecommutersOnline Endpoint Security Monitoring makes it easy to track the disparate devices utilized by teleworkers and either reject or identify and mitigate modern threats like ransomware. With Progent's ProSight Active Security Monitoring services, a small-footprint software agent is put on each secured endpoint, watching all activity and using state-of-the-art behavioral threat analysis from SentinelOne to detect zero-day attacks at inception. When an attack is spotted, ProSight Active Security Monitoring instantly disconnects the targeted endpoint device from the network to contain the malware. Since the ProSight ASM agent is autonomous, endpoint devices stay secure even when they are disconnected from the Internet. Progent is a SentinelOne Partner, reseller, and integrator. To learn more about ProSight ASM, see remote endpoint security monitoring for remote workers.

Two-factor Authentication (2FA) Services for TelecommutersProgent's Duo authentication Managed Services utilize Cisco's Duo cloud technology to protect against compromised passwords by using two-factor authentication. Duo enables one-tap identity verification with iOS, Google Android, and other personal devices. With Duo 2FA, whenever you log into a secured application and give your password you are requested to confirm your identity on a device that only you have and that uses a different ("out-of-band") network channel. A broad selection of devices can be used for this added form of authentication such as an iPhone or Android or watch, a hardware token, a landline phone, etc. You may designate several verification devices. For details about ProSight Duo two-factor identity validation services, go to Cisco Duo MFA two-factor authentication services for telecommuters.

Progent can deploy online, automated security inventory software for quickly and economically detecting a wide variety of security holes that can be found over the Internet.
