Inline Cloud Analysis is an Advanced Threat Prevention feature that enables the detection of advanced, highly-evasive zero-day command-and-control (C2) threats and command injection and SQL injection vulnerabilities in real-time. Inline Cloud Analysis protection is delivered through your Anti-Spyware and Vulnerability Protection security profiles, with advanced C2 (command-and-control) and spyware threats handled by the former, and command injection and SQL injection vulnerabilities by the latter.

To enable and configure Inline Cloud Analysis, you must activate your Advanced Threat Prevention license and create (or modify) the Anti-Spyware and Vulnerability Protection security profile. Then configure the policy settings for each category analysis engine and then attach the profiles to a security policy rule.
