Think of CSA in the same light as you would any Host Based Intrusion
Detection software.
It MAY prevent a virus from communicating, but you still need the Anti-Virus
to clean the "bad software" off your system.
CSA will do NOTHING to help you with SPAM, or Pop-Ups, so don't think it
replaces those.

Hi guys,
Should I think of CSA (Cisco Security Agent) as an alternative to all the
various anti -badstuff software that's out there or think of CSA as just
another tool that can be used to further protect a system?
From what I'm hearing, CSA if properly setup and configured can negate the
need for all that anti-badstuff software.
Please feel free to offer your thoughts and comments.
TIA, Tim
