Security and Compliance for Teleworkers
At-home employees commonly use their personal computers and often operate in a poorly secured physical area. This increases their vulnerability to cyber attacks and calls for careful deployment of firewalls, anti-malware tools, multi-factor authentication, remote endpoint monitoring, thorough user education, and the development of policies based on best practices. Progent's veteran roster of cybersecurity support consultants can assist you to plan, deploy and manage an effective security solution that protects critical IT assets in environments that include remote workers.
Firewalls enable companies to build a network environment that can be securely utilized by local users and by at-home workers, mobile workers, suppliers, customers, and the public. Next-generation firewall devices permit you to configure and control appropriate access rights to different groups of users and to scale your network and adjust your security profile as your business evolves and as network attacks become increasingly complex. Progent supports both new and older security devices from all leading manufacturers including Cisco, Palo Alto Networks, Check Point, Juniper, and Fortinet.

Remote Endpoint Monitoring makes it easy to track the various computers utilized by remote workers and either reject or spot and respond to the latest threats like ransomware. With Progent's ProSight Active Security Monitoring (ASM) services, a lightweight software agent is put on each protected endpoint, monitoring all activity and using state-of-the-art machine learning and full execution context from SentinelOne to identify new threats on arrival. When a cyberattack is discovered, ProSight ASM instantly disconnects the impacted device from the corporate network to quarantine the malware. Because the ProSight Active Security Monitoring software agent is autonomous, endpoint devices remain protected even if they are offline. Progent is a SentinelOne Partner, reseller, and integrator. To learn more about ProSight ASM, refer to remote endpoint security monitoring for remote workers.
Progent's Duo MFA Managed Services utilize Cisco's Duo cloud technology to defend against password theft by using two-factor authentication. Duo enables single-tap identity confirmation with Apple iOS, Android, and other out-of-band devices. Using Duo 2FA, whenever you sign into a protected application and give your password you are requested to confirm who you are via a device that only you possess and that uses a separate network channel. A wide selection of out-of-band devices can be used as this second form of ID validation including an iPhone or Android or wearable, a hardware token, a landline telephone, etc. You can designate several verification devices.
