Learn more about your Gigamon products and features, how they work, and how you can optimize your usage to maximize network performance and security.

Let's be honest, deploying inline decryption — even with Gigamon — is not a walk in the park. But if you don't decrypt, you have a huge blind spot in your network. In this session, we'll show you best practices in deploying Inline SSL/TLS decryption based on our experience with over 1,000 deployments. Learn from our field experts how to deploy inline SSL with minimal pain and maximum gain. Then they’ll walk you through how to implement inline decryption using GigaVUE-FM Fabric Manager and cover topics like PII/compliance challenges and whether it makes sense to do centralized or per tool decryption.

Deep Observability Pipeline: What it is and why it Matters

With 60% of CIOs and IT professionals expecting budget cuts since the pandemic, vendors are using a wide array of sales angles and wild claims of savings to get their foot in the door. How do you tell which are possible, and which are just…well…crazy. 

An amazing claim of self-funding ROI, or savings from reduced data storage or usage may be overblown or otherwise misleading—or it may be just as good as it sounds. The only way to tell the difference is to ask the right questions up front. Join Gigamon’s Field CTO, Jim Mandelbaum, and Product Marketing Director Martyn Crew to find out where these claims come from, and how to ask the pointed questions that reveal the underlying reality. 

In this Tech Talk, they will address these questions:
• Does reducing tools traffic really save you money? 
• Is it even possible to reduce tools traffic when data volumes are exploding? 
• Can consumption and data storage costs be reduced by smarter tools management? 
• Does metadata really reduce tools costs?

We're Going on a Threat Hunt

Zero Trust not going as planned? Hear our CTOs explain why deep observability is foundational for a robust ZTA model.  

The science fiction writer, William Gibson, is well-known for saying, “The future is here. It is just not evenly distributed yet.” The future is already here with Zero Trust, yet many organizations still can’t see how they can implement it in practical terms. Gigamon is here to help you successfully adopt Zero Trust Cybersecurity Principles. Join our CTOs as they discuss Zero Trust Architecture and how you can turn the tables on threats by:

- Gaining deep observability into the entire network
- Implementing network segmentation without disruption
- Getting powerful capabilities to observe adversarial actions in your networks

The Pragmatic Approach to Zero Trust with Deep Observability

Originally aired on an ActualTech Media webcast.

The cloud is today’s #1 applications deployment platform; workforces are mobile and online 24/7; customers are in every corner of the world, and your business-critical data is flowing over increasingly complex, hybrid cloud infrastructures.

Faced with this reality, many organizations are developing agile, responsive security postures that re-use best practices, trusted security approaches, and tools alongside the latest cloud-based security thinking and technologies.

Join AWS cybersecurity expert Bret Gessner, Senior Cloud Channel Sales Engineer at Gigamon, and special guests from Presidio and AWS in a discussion moderated by Bret Gessner who has extensive experience in the public cloud architecture space.

As well as joining the provocative panel discussion, you will have the opportunity to learn how your peers are approaching this critical issue and learn from some of the best and brightest in the cybersecurity industry.

What You'll Learn:
 - Develop an agile, responsive security posture that covers your AWS infrastructure
 - Integrate existing security tools into this hybrid security framework which incorporates public cloud and on-premises appliances
 - Balance the pros and cons of evolutionary vs. revolutionary approaches
 - Procurement best practices for Gigamon

Optimizing and Securing Workloads in AWS

Threats are excellent at evading endpoint detection: hiding in network blind spots, operating using encrypted traffic and targeting cloud workloads. Attackers are dwelling on network up to 280 days on average, evading endpoint detecting and covering their tracks. Join Chris Borales as he discusses how network and security teams can leverage visibility in their security processes to combat today’s ransomware threats.

Agentless threat hunting: Stopping ransomware before the encryption happens

Based on closed-door discussions with over 100 IT executives, Gigamon has created a vision for the future of security and monitoring in the hybrid cloud world. It answers questions like why silos form between IT operations groups (dev, sec and net), why each team’s toolset further builds barriers, how security is the unifying force that’s changing the model, and how the network engineer/architect stays engaged and relevant with pure cloud projects.
 
At this session we will discuss and prove how deep observability pipeline provides a new level of visibility that lets you break down barriers between on-prem, public cloud and multi-cloud infrastructure.
 
We will also show how deep observability extracts intelligence from cloud network packets for your current SIEM and observability tools to analyze and report on. This is cutting edge innovation we can (almost) guarantee you have never seen before.

Deep Observability - 2 Ways It Transforms Cloud, Network and Security Operations

Cybercriminals increasingly use SSL/TLS sessions to hide, confident your security tools will neither inspect nor block their traffic. When that happens, SSL/TLS sessions can become a liability, inadvertently camouflaging malicious traffic.  

Gigamon wanted to understand how organizations are dealing with the risks of encryption, so we examined more than 1 trillion network flows from several dozen enterprises across a variety of industries. And now we’re going to present those findings to you. 

Join Chris Borales and Josh Day for this webinar. You’ll discover:  
 - Encryption trends that have emerged over the past 15 months 
 - The steps organizations are taking to get visibility into this data  
 - Decryption and traffic inspection tips you can use to protect your network
