Overview

Features

The Cisco Secure Malware Analytics M6 appliance provides safe and highly secure on-premises advanced malware analysis with deep threat analytics and content. Secure Malware Analytics appliances provide the complete threat grid malware analysis platform.

Many organizations that handle sensitive data, such as banks, health services, and so forth must follow various regulatory rules and guidelines that do not allow certain types of files, such as malware artifacts, to be sent outside of the network for malware analysis. By maintaining a Cisco Secure Malware Analytics appliance on-premise, organizations are able to send suspicious documents and files to it to be analyzed without leaving the network.

The Secure Malware Analytics M6 appliance supports Secure Malware Analytics Version 3.5.129 and later, and appliance version 2.19 and later.

See Product ID Numbers for a list of the field-replaceable product IDs (PIDs) associated with the Secure Malware Analytics M6 appliance. You can remove and replace drives and power supplies. For all other internal component failures, you must send your chassis for return material authorization (RMA).

The following table lists the features of the Secure Malware Analytics M6.
