Targeted Solution

Securing Remote Workers

Shifting to a remote or hybrid working model can have many operational advantages and improve your company’s attractiveness as an employer.

As staff connect from home, cafés or shared workspaces, a more dispersed work environment fundamentally changes your organisation’s security needs.

 

With Seeto’s Securing Remote Workers solution you can reap the benefits of increased flexibility without putting your data and systems at risk.

What is a secure web gateway?

A secure web gateway (SWG) is a layer of security that controls what internet traffic can access your company’s internal network. With automatic processes such as URL filtering and malware detection SWG protects your staff’s devices from external threats while also enforcing corporate security policies.

What is ransomware?

Ransomware is a form of cyber blackmail, blocking a user – or organisation – from accessing their own data until a ransom is paid.

What is zero-day malware?

Zero-day malware is software that is designed to exploit a recently-identified security flaw.

What is phishing?

Phishing is a method used by cyber criminals to trick a victim into taking a particular action, such as giving out their credit card details, transferring cash to a specified bank account or installing a piece of malware on their device (which can then be used for further malicious activity). It usually takes the form of an email, text message or pop-up window on a web site.

Our Proven Process

Securing your remote workers is an essential part of your company’s transition to hybrid and remote working. Here’s how we usually run the project with our clients:

  1. Kick off with a meeting with key stakeholders, where we get access to required information such as current network set-up, device details and anticipated remote working patterns.
  2. We help you purchase licences for the relevant secure web gateway.
  3. Then we configure the secure web gateway following best practices
  4. Together with the internal stakeholders, we develop a communications plan to align staff with the project’s objectives
  5. We onboard staff to the secure web gateway
  6. Finally, we hand over technical documentation and close the project with a discussion about next steps
