Cybersecurity for Teleworkers
At-home staff members commonly utilize their own computers and usually operate in a poorly secured physical space. This multiplies their vulnerability to malware threats and calls for judicious deployment of corporate firewalls, AV tools, MFA-based identity verification, remote endpoint monitoring, extensive user education, and the creation of policies based on best practices. Progent's seasoned team of data security solutions consultants can assist you to design, implement and maintain an effective security solution that protects vital information resources in environments that include an at-home workforce.
Firewalls enable you to create a network environment that can be securely accessed by local users and by telecommuters, mobile users, suppliers, customers, and other stakeholders. Modern firewall appliances allow you to configure and manage different permissions to various classes of users and to scale your IT network and modify your security profile as your company evolves and as network attacks become more sophisticated. Progent supports both new and legacy firewall devices from all major manufacturers including Cisco, Palo Alto Networks, Check Point, Juniper, SonicWall and Fortinet. For details about Progent's firewall support expertise, see firewall configuration and support expertise.
Remote Endpoint Security Monitoring makes it possible to track the disparate devices used by at-home workers and either block or spot and mitigate the latest cyber attacks like ransomware. With Progent's ProSight Active Security Monitoring (ASM) services, a small-footprint agent is put on every secured endpoint device, watching all activity and utilizing state-of-the-art machine learning and full execution context from SentinelOne to identify new attacks before they can spread. When an attack is discovered, ProSight ASM immediately isolates the targeted endpoint from the network to quarantine the malware. Since the ProSight ASM agent is autonomous, endpoint devices stay secure even if they are not connected to the Internet. Progent is a SentinelOne Partner, reseller, and integrator. For more information about ProSight ASM, refer to remote endpoint monitoring for telecommuters.
Progent's Duo MFA Services utilize Cisco's Duo cloud technology to defend against stolen passwords through the use of two-factor authentication (2FA). Duo supports single-tap identity verification with iOS, Android, and other out-of-band devices. With 2FA, whenever you log into a protected application and enter your password you are asked to verify who you are via a unit that only you have and that uses a different network channel. A broad range of devices can be used for this added means of ID validation including a smartphone or wearable, a hardware/software token, a landline telephone, etc. You may designate several validation devices. To find out more about ProSight Duo identity validation services, refer to Duo MFA two-factor authentication (2FA) services for at-home workers.
