Best Practices and Insights to Optimize your Cloud Journey

Threat actors conceal lateral movement and other activity within encrypted communications, making it incredibly difficult to detect. Gigamon Precryption™ technology is a breakthrough approach to eliminating this blind spot in hybrid cloud infrastructure while achieving TLS 1.3 compliance. Precryption offers plaintext visibility into encrypted communications before the payload is encrypted -- no decryption required. Join us to learn how this technology works and hear about four key use cases.  

What you’ll learn: 

- What is Precryption technology is and why is it different? 
- How does Precryption eliminate blind spots and thwart cybercrime? 
- How does Precryption help security teams achieve TLS 1.3 compliance, boost DNS security, and extend Zero Trust Architecture into the hybrid cloud?

See Concealed Threat Activity Before Encryption with Precryption

Regardless of which Zero Trust model you are utilizing, there are some universal solutions that will be common amongst them. Threat actors are observed using the same tactics and techniques over and over again. In this presentation, we will briefly examine two top models and then explore what that means on a practical level. We will broadly look at some traditional network visibility solutions and challenge some of the norms around these systems. Do they really solve the problem in the best way in a world where everything is encrypted and threat actors hide in plain sight? 

Key takeaways:  
- Can classic tools such as logging really solve for the visibility gap? 
- How to deal with the encryption/decryption paradox? 
- What method can solve for lateral visibility?

Zero Trust in An Encrypted World

Security is more complicated than ever. Most organizations still have traditional networks, traditional datacenter assets, and employees inside the network. All those resources must be protected by iterating and innovating on the tried-and-true methods. Watch this webinar to learn how Gigamon uses innovative solutions to lock down the layers of your environment. 

- Is layered security meaningful in a hybrid world? 
- Is a single security model possible? 
- How is Gigamon evolving our own IT against this background?

Securing Your Borders: Evolving Each Layer of Your Security Program

Building defenses, protecting our walls and guarding the castle. They all sounded a lot easier when the castle walls were solid, clear and defined. These days, it can feel a bit more like you are jousting in fog to protect borders you can’t see or define. Not only are bad actors evolving, but the cloud environments you are asked to protect and secure are rapidly multiplying and becoming more complex. It is time to get out of the fog and stop jousting with air! In this webinar, you will learn how to enable a modern security portfolio through identify tools, strategies and solutions to build the protective defense layers your organization needs to secure its’ vital cloud environments.

Modern Security Portfolio – Toolsets Organizations Need Now

Network observability is a hot topic for many reasons: today’s distributed nature of work, hybrid cloud environments (including containers), and the evolving connectivity infrastructure, to name a few. Join industry experts Will Townsend from Moor Insights & Strategy and Michael Dickman from Gigamon as they discuss what network observability is all about, why it's crucial in today's cloud-centric landscape, and developments that could impact you in 2024.

Moor Insights & Strategy: Network Observability in the Cloud: - Why it Matters

As networks grow, so does the resource demands on network monitoring and security tools. Gigamon has an extensive array of tool optimization technologies, designed to extend the life of tools, saving both tool costs and carbon footprint. We’ll talk about the Gigamon tech enabling these savings. Plus, we’ll show you how to estimate your own savings, as well as demonstrate our free Discovery & Optimization Kit, which you can use to directly measure the efficiency savings in your own environment.

Maximizing Tools Efficiency, Minimizing Carbon Footprint

“How can we get clear-text visibility into a modern encrypted 5G core?” is one of the questions we hear most often from our mobile operator customers. Learn how Gigamon addresses this critical visibility issue and how we support the world’s largest mobile operators when they make the choice to go with a converged core, serving both 4G and 5G traffic.

Gain Visibility into Encrypted Core and 4G+5G Converged Core

With today’s evolving hybrid cloud, you can’t afford to compromise when it comes to application performance and security monitoring. Gigamon Application Filtering Intelligence (AFI) reduces tool burden by selectively sending application traffic to tools. Application Metadata Intelligence (AMI) goes one step further to extract application attributes from traffic and then efficiently deliver them to SIEMs, APMs, and observability tools. In this session, Gigamon technical leaders will demonstrate how to use App Intel to isolate performance bottlenecks and solve tough security cases.

Application Intelligence Best Practices: Leveraging Layer 4-7 Capabilities

SIEMs are one of the most important but also one of the most expensive security tools employed today. However, with the advent of high-performance cloud-based databases and low-cost storage, organizations — including Gigamon — are using these technologies to develop SIEM capabilities at a fraction of the cost of traditional SIEMs. In this session, we will highlight the potential financial and operational benefits of this approach and examine key issues when designing and deploying a security data lake.

Using a Security Data Lake to Reduce SIEM Costs

As networks become more complex, ensuring availability, reliability, performance, and security becomes increasingly difficult. While Gigamon provides powerful troubleshooting capabilities, preventing the occurrence of problems in the first place is a key part of any resilience strategy. Over the years, Gigamon has developed tools and approaches to ensure the optimal health of your network. Learn how to use our no-cost GigaScan and HealthCheck services to assess the health of your network and avoid costly downtime.

How to Get Ahead of Network Issues

Log-based tools make it nearly impossible for CloudOps and DevOps teams to quickly pinpoint customer experience and performance issues. While logs are important for understanding what’s happened on the network, they can’t provide the real-time North-South and East-West visibility that’s needed for effective monitoring and troubleshooting. See how the Gigamon Deep Observability Pipeline delivers network-derived intelligence to MELT (Metrics, Events, Logs, and Traces)-based observability and SIEM tools like Dynatrace and Splunk.

Delivering a Superior Application User Experience

Has a vendor ever told you “Buy us and your Zero Trust journey is complete?” They either don’t understand Zero Trust or think you don’t. In this session, Gigamon Security CTO Ian Farquhar will discuss what it really takes to operationalize Zero Trust. Hear about minimizing implicit trust, implementing constant risk and posture assessments, and how to orchestrate security responses driven by risk determination. Ian will also discuss how to introduce these concepts to improve overall security posture.

Operationalizing Zero Trust: What It Really Takes

Gigamon Deep Observability ensures your tools and Zero Trust policy engine have access to all network-based communications in your organization. For any effective Zero Trust implementation, full network visibility and elimination of blind spots is implicitly assumed.

Operationalizing Zero Trust with Deep Observability

As organizations progress along their Zero Trust journey, many start to pursue approaches which pivot around particular capabilities: endpoint, identity, firewalls.  Often these orgs are paying back some technical debt in doing so, and the vendors who benefit are cheering on this investment.  But is this a truly sensible approach?  Is this Zero Trust truth, or Zero Trust fiction?  How can we plan our Zero Trust journey to reap the benefits Zero Trust can give?

Zero Trust Security: Truth vs. Fiction

Gigamon’s guest, Forrester security analyst, Tope Olufon, discusses the threat landscape and how we can deal with it in very practical terms, using deep observability techniques, visibility into encrypted traffic, and focusing on the network layer.

Forrester – The Power of Visibility in Addressing Today’s Threat Landscape

Join Gigamon’s Ian Farquhar and John Kindervag, the “Creator of Zero Trust” to discuss the lost tenet of Zero Trust; access, inspection and analysis of all network traffic. In 2012 John called it “data access network”, or DAN, today it’s network visibility and elimination of blind spots and why EDRs are not enough, Logs are fragile and are not enough, Span ports are “so last century”, and Blind spots must be eradicated.

If your security tools rely on logs, you may not be seeing the whole picture. In fact, the picture may not even be reliable. That’s because logs can be overwritten, manipulated, and deleted by bad actors. To achieve a more proactive security and compliance posture, adding network-derived context to MELT data brings the entire picture into focus. In this session, we’ll discuss how immutable network intelligence enables you to spot SSL/TLS vulnerabilities, identify port spoofing, and stop rogue activities before damage is done.
