Explanation

AVC (Application Visibility and Control) ships with the base FirePOWER software license at no additional cost, giving you the ability to identify and control application traffic out of the box - no extra subscription needed.

Why the distractors are wrong:

  • A (AMP): Advanced Malware Protection requires a separate Malware license subscription to enable file inspection and retrospective analysis.
  • B (URL): URL filtering/category-based web control requires a separate URL Filtering license.
  • C (IPS): Intrusion Prevention requires a separate Threat/IPS license to enable Snort-based inspection rules.

Memory tip: Think of AVC as the "free binoculars" - you can always see what applications are running on your network with the base license, but you have to pay extra to block malware (AMP), block bad URLs, or block intrusion attempts (IPS). AVC = Always comes with the base package, Visibility is free, Control is free.
