I am running CSA on my CiscoWorks 2000 server, and all of my laptops/desktops at my desk. We were hit by Blaster, and Love Letter. neither effected any of my machines even though I don't have a virus scanner running. It only uses 2-3% of the CPU, so it's not a hog, and it can protect down to the file level (like if you didn't want someone to mess with the hosts file, you could lock it down).

Hi,
Can anyone give me some feedback on the Cisco Security
Agent. This product claims to stop malicious behaviour
on machines infected by any malware.
We were recently hit pretty hard by Sasser. Cisco has
since been trying to sell us this product as a
heuristic solution to malicious activity on the
network. The product does not depend on any signature
updates and is entirely behavioural.
Cisco puports to have successfully stopped Sasser from
doing any damage.
Can anyone confirm this to be a fact. The product does
not come cheap.
Thanks in advance.
Regards
Cherian
