I would check out McAfee's Entercept as well. In my experience, both products are very similar except for the 
management consoles. I have many clients that have or are in the process of evaluating both of these products.

Hi,

Can anyone give me some feedback on the Cisco Security
Agent. This product claims to stop malicious behaviour
on machines infected by any malware.

We were recently hit pretty hard by Sasser. Cisco has
since been trying to sell us this product as a
heuristic solution to malicious activity on the
network. The product does not depend on any signature
updates and is entirely behavioural.

Cisco puports to have successfully stopped Sasser from
doing any damage.

Can anyone confirm this to be a fact. The product does
not come cheap.

Thanks in advance.

Regards

Cherian
