Gigamon offers a deep observability pipeline that harnesses actionable network-level intelligence to amplify the power of observability tools. This powerful combination enables IT organizations to assure security and compliance governance, speed root-cause analysis of performance bottlenecks, and lower operational overhead associated with managing hybrid and multi-cloud IT infrastructures.

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

Join Chris Ebley (CTO at Blackwood Associates) and Crist Watts (Splunk Technical Lead at Aplura) as they share security automation strategies and answer frequently asked questions. Both Chris and Crist work for Gigamon professional services partners and have developed successful strategies that leverage Gigamon for faster detection and reaction to threats across the hybrid enterprise. These strategies, ideas, and techniques increase network-layer visibility and your organization’s ability to proactively detect and respond to threats, supporting security operations and compliance efforts as well.

Security Automation Architecture Strategies

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.

Logs or Packets — Which is Better for Hybrid Cloud Security?

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

In today's rapidly evolving digital landscape, securing your hybrid cloud environment while ensuring network stability has become paramount. Whether you're a seasoned IT professional or just beginning your cloud journey, this webinar is tailored to provide you with actionable insights and strategies to fortify your hybrid cloud infrastructure.

Decryption is not the end goal; it's the means to the end, which is traffic inspection. Our Security CTO will discuss how plaintext data access can introduce privacy and insider threat concerns, and mitigation strategies used by our customers.

We have decrypted traffic. Now what?

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.

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

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.

Deep Observability: Delivering a Superior Application User Experience

Encrypted lateral traffic: Is there a bigger blind spot? We can only search where the light shines, not where we lost that proverbial key. The shadows today’s hybrid-cloud digital infrastructure provides a hiding space for both threat actors and pesky app troubleshooting issues.  

Do any of these apply to your organization? 
- Lack of network traffic visibility into east-west, lateral virtual traffic, including container pod-pod or client-server communications. 
- No practical way to decrypt that traffic, especially TLS 1.3. 
- Current SIEMs and observability tools cannot see and run analytics on unmanaged host communications. 
- Tools cannot ingest network packets because of capability, capacity, and cost challenges. 
- App owners resist agents in their apps and workloads. 
 
You will get a behind the curtain look at this new technology and see a demo of emerging real-life use cases that are just now coming to light. Join us for a view into the future of security and operations.

Shedding Light on Encrypted Lateral Traffic: Precryption™ Unveiled

In a digital landscape fraught with sophisticated cyber threats, traditional security models fall short in providing adequate protection. It's time to embrace a revolutionary approach – Zero Trust Security. Join us for a game-changing discussion where we delve into the depths of Zero Trust, the future of cybersecurity.

Demystifying Zero Trust: Navigate the Journey One Step at a Time

App developers are running fast, but have they kept security in mind every step of the way? Even as more applications are containerized, accessing and inspecting container traffic remains elusive. That is, until now. Gigamon Universal Cloud Tap (UCT) is a gamechanger for container visibility. Hear from a veteran Gigamon Sales Engineer as he shares best practices for accessing container traffic to better secure your applications.
