CSC or AIPS

[snootalope]

What exactly is the differince between these two modules for the asa (we're using a 5510)?

CSC-SSM
AIP-SSM-10

It sounds like both of these modules do the same thing, I'm struggling to find the advantages/disadvantages when comparing the two. Really, the only thing I know for sure is different is the CSC has URL Filtering.

Anyone wanna shed some light one these for me (preferably someone who's used them)? Can they both be installed in an asa at the same time or is that pointless?

The AIP is intrusion protection/detection stopping viruses from a network traffic standpoint and network attacks in general.

The CSC is more anit-virus, malware, etc. through content filtering
