Challenge

Remote Workers

Most compliance programs are still designed for centralized environments and patched for remote work with manual workarounds.

The Problem

Tracking remote device compliance in spreadsheets, managing VPN policies across different locations, verifying that home office setups meet security baselines with self-reported checklists. The manual processes that barely worked for a 30-person office collapse entirely when the team is distributed across 15 cities.

Remote work isn't an edge case anymore — it's the operating model. But most compliance and security programs are still designed for centralized environments and patched for remote work with manual workarounds.

Why It Matters

The cost of securing a distributed workforce manually scales with both headcount and geographic spread. If your security and compliance programs require more labor every time you hire a remote employee or open a new location, the ROI of your security investment degrades.

Data residency requirements, multi-jurisdictional compliance, and location-specific regulatory obligations add complexity that compounds with scale. A 30-person company can manage remote security informally. A 300-person distributed company cannot — and the gap between informal practices and auditable controls is where risk accumulates.

Software Only Options

Endpoint security platforms, identity providers, and compliance tools have adapted well to remote-first environments — offering location-agnostic device posture checks, cloud-based access management, and remote policy distribution. These tools have made it possible to extend enterprise security to distributed teams in ways that weren't feasible even five years ago.

But operating these tools across a fully distributed workforce — ensuring every remote endpoint is compliant, every access event is governed, every location's regulatory requirements are met — still requires significant operational effort. The tools are capable. The labor to operate them at scale is the constraint. Software can check a home endpoint's posture; deciding whether a flagged device in a new jurisdiction should keep access takes judgment. That's where our engineers come in.

How Agency Solves It

Agency extends your existing security and compliance stack to cover every remote worker, every device, every location — without replacing your tools.

Agency is additive: keep CrowdStrike or your endpoint security, keep your identity provider, keep Vanta or Drata. No migration. Agency operates across all of them to enforce your security baseline regardless of where employees connect from.

Agency replaces the labor: the IT admin verifying remote device compliance, the compliance coordinator tracking policy acknowledgments across time zones, the security analyst managing VPN and access policies for distributed teams. Agency's U.S.-based forward-deployed engineers, supercharged by AI, handle it continuously.

Remote work is your operating model. Agency is your remote security operations team — scaling automatically with your workforce without scaling your headcount.

Agency is the operations layer that makes remote security and compliance automatic, regardless of where your team works. Your tools provide the capabilities. Agency provides the execution at scale.

Agency replaces the labor, not the tools. Keep CrowdStrike or your endpoint security. Keep your identity provider. Agency operates across all of them — enforcing security baselines, governing access, and documenting compliance continuously regardless of where your team works. Remote work is your operating model. Agency is your remote security operations team.
