Cybersecurity for Remote Workers
At-home employees typically utilize their own devices and usually work in an unsecured physical area. This situation increases their vulnerability to malware attacks and requires judicious deployment of corporate firewalls, AV tools, multi-factor authentication, remote monitoring, extensive end-user education, and the creation of policies built on leading practices. Progent's veteran roster of IT security solutions experts can assist your business to plan, configure and manage an effective security solution that guards critical IT assets in environments that incorporate telecommuters.

Firewall Integration Services for At-Home WorkersFirewalls enable you to create a network environment that can be securely accessed by local users as well as by at-home workers, mobile employees, suppliers, clients, and the public. Modern firewall devices allow you to configure and manage appropriate permissions to various groups of users and to expand your IT network and adjust your security profile as your business evolves and as cyber threats grow increasingly complex. Progent works with both current and older firewall devices from all major manufacturers including Cisco, Palo Alto Networks, WatchGuard, Juniper, and Fortinet.

Remote Endpoint Monitoring for At-Home WorkersRemote Endpoint Monitoring makes it easy to track the various devices used by an at-home workforce and either block or spot and mitigate modern threats like ransomware. With Progent's ProSight Active Security Monitoring (ASM) services, a lightweight software agent is put on each protected endpoint device, monitoring all activity and using advanced behavioral threat analysis from SentinelOne to identify new threats on arrival. When an attack is discovered, ProSight ASM immediately isolates the targeted endpoint device from the corporate network to quarantine the threat. Because the ProSight Active Security Monitoring agent is autonomous, endpoint devices stay protected even if they are disconnected from the Internet. Progent is a SentinelOne Partner, reseller, and integrator. To learn more about ProSight Active Security Monitoring, see remote endpoint security monitoring for an at-home workforce.

Two-factor Authentication Services for TeleworkersProgent's Duo authentication Service Plans utilize Cisco's Duo technology to protect against stolen passwords through the use of two-factor authentication. Duo enables single-tap identity verification with iOS, Google Android, and other out-of-band devices. Using Duo 2FA, whenever you log into a protected online account and give your password you are asked to confirm who you are on a unit that only you have and that uses a separate network channel. A broad selection of out-of-band devices can be utilized for this added form of ID validation such as a smartphone or watch, a hardware token, a landline phone, etc. You can designate several verification devices.
