What is Cisco Secure Endpoint (formerly AMP)?


Cisco Secure Endpoint (formerly AMP) is a complete, optionally managed security solution provided by Rutgers OIT to faculty and staff. Cisco Secure Endpoint prevents attacks by providing the latest global threat intelligence to strengthen defenses, a built-in antivirus (AV) engine to detect and block attacks at point-of-entry, built-in sandboxing technology to analyze unknown files, and proactive protection capabilities that close attack pathways and minimize vulnerabilities. If malware evades these prevention measures and gets inside, Cisco Secure Endpoint continuously monitors and records all file activity to quickly detect malicious behavior, retrospectively alert security teams, and then provide deep visibility and a detailed recorded history of the malware’s behavior over time—where it came from, where it’s been, and what it’s doing. Cisco Secure Endpoint can then automatically contain and remediate the threat. Cisco Secure Endpoint protects endpoints—like laptops, workstations, servers, and mobile devices—running Windows, Mac OS, Linux, Android and iOS.
