Public health needs both partner antivirus offload through NSX Guest Introspection and Carbon Black Cloud prevention on the same EHR VMs. Staff believe the Thin Agent replaces the CB Defense sensor. What should be installed?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
GI is the hypervisor’s peek into the guest for partner AV. Carbon Black is the cloud prevention sensor on the endpoint. Different jobs, same VM—install both when you need both.
Full Explanation
Guest Introspection’s Thin Agent enables NSX partner file and network introspection and related IDFW guest context. The Carbon Black Cloud / CB Defense sensor provides cloud-delivered prevention and EDR, so one does not replace the other. If both partner GI endpoint protection and CBC prevention are required, install both; Layer-4 DFW is not a substitute for either agent.
