Security for Teleworkers
Work-from-Home staff members typically use their own computing devices and often operate in an unsecured physical space. This multiplies their vulnerability to malware threats and requires judicious deployment of corporate firewalls, AV tools, MFA-based identity verification, remote endpoint monitoring, intensive user education, and the development of policies based on best practices. Progent's seasoned group of cybersecurity solutions consultants can help your business to plan, implement and maintain a compliant security solution that guards vital IT assets in networks that incorporate at-home workers.
Firewalls allow you to create a network environment that can be safely utilized by on-premises users as well as by at-home workers, mobile workers, suppliers, clients, and the public. Modern firewall appliances allow you to configure and control different permissions to various groups of users and to expand your network and adjust your security as your business evolves and as cyber threats grow more complex. Progent works with both current and older security appliances from all major vendors like Cisco, Palo Alto Networks, Check Point, Juniper, and Fortinet.

Remote Endpoint Security Monitoring makes it easy to track the various devices used by telecommuters and either reject or spot and respond to modern threats such as ransomware. With Progent's ProSight Active Security Monitoring (ASM) services, a small-footprint agent is put on every secured endpoint device, monitoring all activity and utilizing advanced machine learning and full execution context from SentinelOne to detect new attacks on arrival. When an attack is spotted, ProSight ASM immediately isolates the impacted endpoint from the corporate network to quarantine the malware. Because the ProSight Active Security Monitoring software agent is self-contained, endpoint devices stay secure even when they are not connected to the Internet. Progent is a SentinelOne Partner, reseller, and integrator. For more information about ProSight Active Security Monitoring, see remote endpoint monitoring for telecommuters.
Progent's Duo MFA Managed Services incorporate Cisco's Duo cloud technology to protect against stolen passwords by using two-factor authentication. Duo enables one-tap identity verification with Apple iOS, Google Android, and other personal devices. With 2FA, when you log into a protected application and give your password you are requested to verify who you are via a device that only you possess and that is accessed using a different network channel. A broad range of out-of-band devices can be used as this second means of authentication such as an iPhone or Android or wearable, a hardware/software token, a landline phone, etc. You may designate several verification devices. For more information about ProSight Duo identity validation services, refer to Duo MFA two-factor authentication services for at-home workers.
