Security and Compliance for Remote Workers
Work-from-Home (WFH) employees commonly utilize their personal devices and often work in a poorly secured physical area. This situation increases their susceptibility to cyber attacks and requires careful deployment of corporate firewalls, anti-malware tools, MFA-based identity verification, remote endpoint monitoring, intensive end-user education, and the development of security policies built on best practices. Progent's seasoned roster of cybersecurity support experts can help your business to design, implement and manage an effective cybersecurity solution that guards vital IT assets in networks that include at-home workers.
Firewalls allow you to create a network environment that can be safely utilized by local users as well as by an at-home workforce, mobile employees, suppliers, customers, and other stakeholders. Modern firewall appliances permit you to configure and manage different permissions to various groups of users and to expand your network and modify your security as your business evolves and as network attacks grow increasingly sophisticated. Progent supports both new and legacy firewall devices from all major manufacturers including Cisco, Palo Alto Networks, WatchGuard, Juniper, and Fortinet.

Online Endpoint Monitoring makes it possible to track the disparate devices utilized by telecommuters and either block or spot and respond to the latest cyber attacks such as ransomware. With Progent's ProSight Active Security Monitoring (ASM) services, a small-footprint software agent is installed on every secured endpoint device, watching all activity and utilizing advanced machine learning and full execution context from SentinelOne to detect new threats before they can spread. When a cyberattack is spotted, ProSight ASM instantly disconnects the impacted endpoint from the network to quarantine the threat. Because the ProSight ASM software agent is self-contained, endpoints remain secure even if they are not connected to the Internet. Progent is a SentinelOne Partner, reseller, and integrator. For details about ProSight ASM, go to remote endpoint security monitoring for an at-home workforce.
Progent's Duo MFA Service Plans utilize Cisco's Duo technology to defend against password theft through the use of two-factor authentication (2FA). Duo supports single-tap identity verification with Apple iOS, Google Android, and other out-of-band devices. Using 2FA, when you log into a protected 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 different ("out-of-band") network channel. A broad range of devices can be used as this second form of ID validation such as an iPhone or Android or watch, a hardware/software token, a landline telephone, etc. You can designate multiple validation devices.
