COVID-19 has forced most government agencies to send employees to work from home. Veriato can help you maintain the visibility critical for managing productivity, security, and compliance while your employees work remotely.
Veriato monitors and analyzes all digital activity on PCs, Macs, and Android devices, locally or remotely, 24/7. The workforce activity data is sent back to a central management console, where alerting and reporting can help you identify areas of concern regarding employee disengagement, productivity, security, and compliance.
As a Manager or Director, you need metrics to analyze and the visibility to take action. With Veriato, you'll be able to see:
With employees working from home, new compliance issues arise. Network security and DLP solutions can only monitor file movement when the remote device is connected to the network via a VPN. If a remote employee "clicks off" of the VPN after they've downloaded sensitive data (patient records, PII, etc.), there is no way to see what they are doing with the data. The data is at risk, and the organization is now out of compliance. Because Veriato does not require VPN connectivity, remote data movement is always monitored, ensuring compliance standards are maintained and easily reported on.
Veriato helps contractor organizations of all kinds ensure the security of Information Systems and sensitive data through both predictive leading indicators based on user behavior, and detailed, contextual, rich logging of all user activity – both inside applications dealing with IP, as well as any other application. Veriato’s two-prong approach provides complete visibility into the individual actions of each user, while maintaining the privacy of employees.
Veriato’s unmatched visibility into user activity serves as the basis for behavioral analytics and activity monitoring, which together provide accurate early detection of both potential and active threats.
Many public sector agencies, including civilian government contractors, manage sensitive data that requires special classification and amplified access monitoring specifically for insider threats. The National Industrial Security Program Operating Manual (DoD 5220.22-M) mandates federal contractors to implement an insider threat program, which includes the monitoring of user activity to detect both potential and active insider threats.
To meet these requirements, they need solutions in place with visibility into all user interaction with sensitive and classified data – regardless of the application.
Veriato solutions provide some of the most advanced Insider Threat security in the industry. The software allows a security team to protect valuable data by combining User Behavior Analytics, User Activity Monitoring, and Risk Scoring to proactively identify signs of risk. Cerebral will hunt for signs of fraud, data theft, and other suspicious/restricted activities in real-time. Cerebral gives an organization the ability to react quickly to protect critical data such as personally identifiable information, patient information, financial records, and intellectual property. Additionally, captured screenshots and data logs become crucial evidence for use by HR or in legal proceedings when necessary.
Veriato agents are remotely deployed to Windows, Mac, and Android devices (in both physical or virtualized environments) from the central management console. The devices can be in the office or in a remote location as long as the device has internet connectivity, you can deploy the Cerebral agent. Agents can be deployed so they are visible to the employee, or they can operate in stealth mode so that the employee does not know that they are being monitored.
You'll have granular control over what activities and programs are monitored for each employee or group. Once Cerebral software is deployed on the company's PCs, Macs, and Android devices, you can remotely monitor activity by department, group, or individual.
Whether you use the pre-programmed reports or create custom reports of your own, it's simple to analyze the activity of thousands of employees. This reporting also simplifies compliance reporting.
Catch potential problems in real-time. Set up custom alerts to inform you when employees attempt to visit restricted sites, engage in unusual or risky behavior, download non-productive programs or apps, or spend all afternoon on Netflix!
