Use of encryption for network traffic continues to rise, for both good and bad. Today over 85% of malware relies on encryption to hide in plain sight. The need to decrypt and inspect traffic is easy to see and is recommended by The NSA. Deploying actual decryption in a cost-effective and scalable way while meeting privacy and compliance requirements might not have been easy. However, it doesn’t need to be difficult or expensive. 

Gigamon TLS/SSL Decryption offers a centralized, high-performance solution that improves existing security tools by decrypting traffic once and inspecting it many times. Decrypting traffic exiting the network enables command and control detection, preventing data exfiltration and strengthening the company’s compliance stance. By being able to selectively choose what traffic to decrypt and what not to, it becomes possible to engage the right tools to enhance the security posture effectively.  

This webinar is designed to equip security and network architects with knowledge of current decryption trends, known challenges, and recommended solutions by demonstrating real-world use cases.

Practical Advice for Inline and Out-of-Band Decryption

Microsegmentation, like EDR, NDR, and a myriad of other tools, is an important part of an organization’s defense-in-depth strategy. But, like any one of those tools, microsegmentation is not an answer in itself.

In this webinar, Ian and Martyn will discuss: 
- The pros and cons of microsegmentation 
- Where microsegmentation fits within a defense-in-depth security strategy 
- How Gigamon can increase the technical effectiveness and ROI of your microsegmentation investment

Getting the Most from your Investment in Microsegmentation

The complexity of hybrid application environments obscures root cause identification hinders proactive incident resolution, and negatively impacts user experience. Organizations need a unified observability solution that delivers full-stack visibility, leverages AI for predictive and prescriptive insights, establishes user-centric Service Level Objectives (SLOs), and generates timely, actionable alerts to maintain optimal service delivery.

Achieving a Holistic View of What Is Happening in Your Hybrid Infrastructure

A practical guide to generating insights from network traffic for operations and security  

In today’s hybrid and multi-cloud world how do organizations keep up with the volume and complexity of the data being generated and leverage it to deliver business outcomes? AIOps can help, but it’s thirsty for high-quality, complete data. Much of the telemetry is there, but it’s often siloed and diverse, cluttered with irrelevant information, and lacks critical context for security and performance use cases. How can you cut through the noise and feed your AIOps engine only the necessary data it needs to make smart, quick decisions?    

In this webinar, Carlos Casanova, Principal Analyst, Forrester, and Bassam Khan, Vice President of Product and Technical Marketing Engineering, Gigamon, will discuss how organizations can strengthen their AIOps efforts by leveraging network communications, the one normalized telemetry across any hybrid-cloud infrastructure. They will illustrate ways to deliver insights derived from network traffic for enhancing security, improving application performance, faster troubleshooting, and optimizing AIOps costs.

“Gaining complete visibility into the network is like lighting up the whole street. When it comes to implementing Zero Trust, this is the best place to start”. 
-- John Kindervag, Creator of Zero Trust 
 
As organizations come to terms with the complexity of designing and implementing Zero Trust policies, procedures and the technologies required to support them, they realize the importance of having visibility into everything that’s happening on the network. This need for visibility is also recognized in the latest iterations of the CISA and DoD Zero Trust models. Gigamon is the visibility foundation for many of today’s most demanding Zero Trust implementations. Join Michael Dickman, Chief Product Officer at Gigamon, to discuss key, real-world Zero Trust issues including: 

What are the key visibility attributes needed for Zero Trust success? 

Do logs provide the visibility you need? 

How do you verify and establish trust in your Zero Trust implementation?

Network Visibility is the Foundation of Zero Trust

Feeding traffic from AWS to security and performance monitoring tools can become very expensive as environments scale and deploy NDR/XDR sensors. Organizations can be overwhelmed by the surprisingly high costs of AWS, especially when load balancers are needed to support large amounts of volume.

Design a Cost-Efficient AWS Visibility Architecture

As agencies forge ahead in their cloud security and resilience journeys, they must consider what gaps have been filled and what remain to cover. Many turn to frameworks such as the five pillars of Zero Trust in CISA’s Zero Trust Maturity Model. In this panel, agency leaders will share how they incorporate these pillars – identity, devices, network, data, and applications and workloads – into their everyday cloud security frameworks, and where they see the most important remaining gaps and risks across hybrid infrastructure.
