Cybersecurity for Remote Workers
Work-from-Home workers commonly use their own computing devices and often operate in a poorly secured physical space. This increases their vulnerability to cyber attacks and calls for judicious configuration of firewalls, AV tools, multi-factor authentication, remote endpoint monitoring, intensive end-user training, and the development of security policies based on best practices. Progent's veteran group of cybersecurity solutions experts can help your business to plan, configure and manage an effective security solution that guards critical IT resources in environments that incorporate remote workers.

Firewall Integration Services for At-Home WorkersFirewalls allow you to build a network that can be securely accessed by local users as well as by teleworkers, mobile workers, suppliers, clients, and the public. Next-generation firewall appliances allow you to assign and manage appropriate access rights to different classes of users and to expand your network and modify your security as your company evolves and as cyber threats grow increasingly complex. Progent works with both current and legacy firewall devices from all major vendors including Cisco, Palo Alto Networks, Check Point, Juniper, SonicWall and Fortinet. For details about Progent's firewall support services, refer to firewall integration and support expertise.

Remote Security Monitoring for At-Home WorkersRemote Endpoint Security Monitoring makes it easy to track the disparate computers utilized by teleworkers and either reject or spot and mitigate modern threats such as ransomware. With ProSight Active Security Monitoring (ASM) services, a lightweight software agent is installed on each protected endpoint device, watching all activity and using state-of-the-art machine learning and full execution context from SentinelOne to identify zero-day threats at inception. When an attack is discovered, ProSight Active Security Monitoring instantly disconnects the targeted device from the corporate network to contain the malware. Since the ProSight Active Security Monitoring agent is autonomous, endpoint devices stay protected even when they are not connected to the Internet. Progent is a SentinelOne Partner, reseller, and integrator. For more information about ProSight ASM, visit remote endpoint monitoring for an at-home workforce.

Two-factor Authentication (2FA) Services for At-Home WorkersProgent's Duo MFA Service Plans incorporate Cisco's Duo cloud technology to protect against stolen passwords through the use of two-factor authentication. Duo supports single-tap identity verification on iOS, Android, and other personal devices. Using 2FA, whenever you sign into a protected online account and enter your password you are asked to verify who you are via a unit that only you possess and that uses a different ("out-of-band") network channel. A wide selection of devices can be used for this second means of authentication including an iPhone or Android or wearable, a hardware/software token, a landline telephone, etc. You may register several validation devices.
