DRAG DROP [Security Concepts] Drag and drop the features of Cisco ASA with Firepower from the left onto the benefits on the right.

Advanced Malware Protection (AMP) is specifically designed to detect, block, and remediate malware, including zero-day attacks, through continuous analysis. Full Context Awareness aggregates data on users, devices, applications, and operating systems, providing the visibility necessary to create and enforce granular security policies. Collective Security Intelligence (powered by Cisco Talos) provides the system with real-time updates on global threat intelligence (IP, URL, and domain reputation) to block attacks proactively. Finally, the Next-Generation Intrusion Prevention System (NGIPS) utilizes this context and intelligence to provide comprehensive threat prevention and mitigation against both known exploits and unknown vulnerabilities.
