Explanation

Cisco Advanced Malware Protection (AMP) for WSA provides point-in-time detection, meaning it scans and analyzes files at the moment they are downloaded or transferred through the proxy. Without AMP, the WSA relies on standard web reputation and URL filtering but lacks deep file-level malware inspection at the time of transfer. AMP adds the ability to analyze file dispositions (clean, malicious, unknown) using threat intelligence from Cisco Talos at that specific point in time. Option B (roaming user protection) is handled by Cisco Umbrella, not AMP. Option C (DLP) is a separate WSA feature. Option D (restricted bandwidth) is unrelated to AMP's function.
