Why each option
Cisco AMP's continuous protection is delivered through Global Threat Intelligence from Talos, which provides perpetually updated threat data throughout the full attack lifecycle.
Behavioral Indicators of Compromise is a detection mechanism within AMP's continuous monitoring phase but is not identified in this context as the foundational continuous protection feature.
Sandboxing File Analysis (Threat Grid) is a point-in-time technique that detonates suspicious files in an isolated environment at the moment of detection, not an ongoing continuous protection method.
Global Threat Intelligence, powered by Cisco Talos, is a continuous protection feature because it is perpetually refreshed with real-time data collected from millions of global sensors, enabling AMP to continuously detect and respond to new and evolving threats - not only at the initial point of file inspection. This ongoing intelligence stream feeds retrospective analysis and behavioral monitoring, making it active before, during, and after a threat event.
File Reputation is a point-in-time lookup that evaluates a file's known reputation at the instant it is first encountered, not a continuously active protection capability.
