Spero is a machine learning-based detection engine in Cisco Advanced Malware Protection (AMP) that specializes in identifying and blocking advanced malware, particularly polymorphic variants and zero-day threats found in executable files. It analyzes file characteristics and behavior to detect suspicious Microsoft executable file types.

Dynamic analysis is a technique (sandboxing) for malware detection, but 'Spero' is the specific Cisco AMP engine that utilizes machine learning for this purpose on executables.

Static analysis is a technique for malware detection, but 'Spero' is the specific Cisco AMP engine utilizing machine learning for executable analysis.

Ethos is another Cisco AMP engine focused on detecting polymorphic variants and malware families, not primarily on general machine learning for suspicious executable file types as Spero is.
