Features
A Cisco Threat Grid appliance provides safe and highly secure on-premises advanced malware analysis, with deep threat analytics and content. Threat Grid Appliances provide the complete Threat Grid malware analysis platform, installed on a single UCS server.
Many organizations that handle sensitive data, such as banks, health services, etc., must follow various regulatory rules and guidelines that will not allow certain types of files, such as malware artifacts, to be sent outside of the network for malware analysis. By maintaining a Cisco Threat Grid Appliance on-premises, organizations are able to send suspicious documents and files to it to be analyzed without leaving the network.
The Cisco Threat Grid M5 appliance supports Threat Grid Version 3.5.27 and later, and appliance version 2.7.2 and later.
See Product ID Numbers for a list of the field-replaceable product IDs (PIDs) associated with the Threat Grid M5 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 Threat Grid M5.
