Security and Compliance for Remote Workers
Work-from-Home staff members typically utilize their own computing devices and often operate in an unsecured physical environment. This multiplies their susceptibility to malware threats and requires judicious deployment of corporate firewalls, AV tools, MFA-based identity verification, remote monitoring, thorough end-user training, and the creation of policies built on leading practices. Progent's veteran roster of data security support consultants can assist your business to plan, configure and maintain a compliant security solution that guards critical IT resources in environments that incorporate remote workers.
Firewalls allow you to build a network environment that can be safely accessed by on-premises users and by telecommuters, mobile employees, suppliers, clients, and other stakeholders. Next-generation firewall devices permit you to configure and control different access rights to various classes of users and to expand your IT network and modify your security profile as your business evolves and as network attacks become increasingly sophisticated. Progent supports both current and legacy security devices from all leading vendors like Cisco, Palo Alto Networks, Check Point, Juniper, SonicWall and Fortinet. For details about Progent's firewall integration services, refer to firewall support services.
Remote Endpoint Monitoring makes it possible to track the disparate computers used by an at-home workforce and either block or identify and mitigate modern cyber attacks such as ransomware. With ProSight Active Security Monitoring services, a lightweight software agent is put on every protected endpoint device, watching all activity and utilizing state-of-the-art machine learning from SentinelOne to detect zero-day attacks before they can spread. When a cyberattack is spotted, ProSight Active Security Monitoring immediately disconnects the targeted endpoint device from the corporate network to contain the malware. Because the ProSight Active Security Monitoring agent is autonomous, endpoints stay secure even when they are disconnected from the Internet. Progent is a SentinelOne Partner, reseller, and integrator. For details about ProSight Active Security Monitoring, see remote endpoint monitoring for at-home workers.
Progent's Duo MFA Managed Services utilize Cisco's Duo technology to protect against compromised passwords by using two-factor authentication. Duo enables one-tap identity confirmation on Apple iOS, Android, and other personal devices. Using Duo 2FA, whenever you sign into a secured application and give your password you are requested to verify your identity on a unit that only you possess and that is accessed using a different network channel. A broad selection of devices can be used as this second means of authentication such as an iPhone or Android or wearable, a hardware/software token, a landline telephone, etc. You can designate multiple verification devices. For details about Duo two-factor identity validation services, go to Cisco Duo MFA two-factor authentication (2FA) services for at-home workers.
Security Audits can assess the vulnerability of your network to all classes of external and local security threats for a network that incorporates an at-home workforce.
