The Cisco Advanced Malware Protection (AMP) Private Cloud Virtual Appliance is designed for organizations with stringent privacy requirements that prohibit the use of public cloud services. This solution offers an on-premises, air-gapped deployment, ensuring that sensitive data remains within the organization's controlled environment.

Key Features - On-Premises Deployment: The AMP Private Cloud is installed on your hardware as a self-contained virtual machine, providing complete control over your security infrastructure. - Air-Gapped Security: Designed for environments with high privacy needs, the appliance ensures that no sensitive data is exposed to external networks. - Integration with Cisco Security Network: In cases where an unknown or suspicious file is detected, the appliance leverages Cisco's extensive public cloud security intelligence network for file disposition. It sends only anonymized SHA256 information to maintain privacy while benefiting from global threat intelligence. - Retrospective Security: After consulting the public cloud, the AMP Private Cloud updates its database and enables retrospective security measures to address any potential threats identified. - Comprehensive Malware Protection: The appliance connects to Cisco AMP for Endpoints and Cisco AMP for Networks, offering robust protection against both endpoint and network malware threats. - Scalability: Each instance supports up to 10,000 connectors, allowing for extensive scalability. Multiple appliances can be deployed within the same environment to increase capacity as needed. - Feature Parity with Public Cloud Option: Offers many of the same capabilities as Cisco's AMP public cloud deployment, ensuring that organizations do not sacrifice functionality for privacy.

This solution provides organizations with the visibility and control necessary to effectively stop malware, ensuring robust protection while adhering to strict privacy standards.
