CSA is a host based IPS
"Cisco Security Agent provides threat protection for server and desktop
computing systems, also known as endpoints. It identifies and prevents
malicious behavior, thereby eliminating known and unknown ("Day Zero")
security risks and helping to reduce operational costs. The Cisco
Security Agent aggregates and extends multiple endpoint security
functions by providing host intrusion prevention, distributed firewall
capabilities, malicious mobile code protection, operating system
integrity assurance, and audit log consolidation, all within a single
product. And because Cisco Security Agent analyzes behavior rather than
relying on signature matching, it provides robust protection with
reduced operational costs."

Hi Cherian,
You can look into product like IPS. I think it should be
better than CSA.

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
