Why each option
Cisco ASA with FirePOWER Services integrated with AMP achieved 100% threat blocking in third-party security effectiveness testing, earning the highest possible score.
99.2% does not correspond to the documented third-party test result cited for ASA with FirePOWER AMP security effectiveness.
95.6% is not the figure associated with the highest security effectiveness score for Cisco AMP on the ASA with FirePOWER platform.
Cisco AMP on the ASA with FirePOWER platform uses file reputation, dynamic sandboxing, and retrospective analysis to detect and block threats, resulting in a 100% security effectiveness score in NSS Labs third-party evaluations. This perfect score distinguished it from competing next-generation firewall solutions. The result validated Cisco's integrated threat defense strategy combining NGFW, NGIPS, and AMP in a single platform.
98.5% does not match the third-party testing result that earned AMP the highest security effectiveness recognition.
