Work From Home

Since organizations may not have ample number of laptops for remote workers, employees may be able to supply their device if they could be enabled to securely access business applications and systems. If new laptops can be shipped to employees, remote workers need to be able to install a management agent that enables the IT staff to deploy critical business and security applications remotely.

The CISO and security teams must continue to protect sensitive data while teleworking. Additionally, IT and Security operations must continue to work together to patch and remediate vulnerabilities quickly.

Traditional remote access solutions were architected to accommodate traveling employees and occasional access from home, not the entire workforce. Now, IT must rapidly scale their remote access solutions to accommodate most if not all the organization’s workforce.

Capabilities

To enable these capabilities, 2TS is providing the BigFix Work From Home Solution built upon the proven BigFix platform. It rapidly enables government agencies and organizations of all types to securely manage remote workers’ workstations so that employees can continue to work and ensure that operations continue unabated without creating unnecessary security risks.

These core capabilities are packaged to create an integrated, BigFix Work From Home Solution. It supports the on-premise client workstations, as well as workstations used by remote workers, whether owned by employees or employers.

Enroll

Enable employees to work on a BYOD device, a freshly procured new device shipped straight from the vendor, or any repurposed office system. Simplified enrollment and workstation set up are initiated by clicking a link in an email sent from the IT staff.

Deploy

Auto deploy business-critical and security applications and provide a Self-Service App Store to streamline installation of additional business applications.

Secure

Keep devices secure while off the corporate network with continuous patching. Secure and comply with internal, corporate policies including password policy as well as helping maintain compliance with industry standards such as PCI, CIS, and DISA STIG

Support

What Our Clients Have To Say

The latest crisis could impact the way we all do business—helping workers realize that they can do their job from anywhere and helping employers appreciate that geography is a state of mind…

When XTND moved to remote working and reduced the corporate facilities at head office, we needed to deliver new laptops to our investigators and other staff. They can use any device they want since BigFix supports macOS, Windows, and Linux, and we can remotely manage them all with a single tool, even if they aren’t connected to our VPN. We implemented pretty much all of the best BigFix features: operating system and application patching, software distribution, a self-service software catalogue, and remote desk control for help desk support and remote access to investigative systems. BigFix allowed us to roll out a remote solution very quickly.
