Description

At Gigamon, our purpose is to protect the hybrid networks and data of the largest, most complex organizations on the planet. Certified as a Great Place to Work, we offer a deep observability pipeline that efficiently delivers network-derived intelligence to cloud, security, and observability tools. This helps our customers to eliminate security blind spots, optimize network traffic, and dramatically reduce tool cost and complexity, enabling them to better secure and manage their hybrid cloud infrastructure. Gigamon has served more than 4,000 customers worldwide, including over 80 percent of Fortune 100 enterprises, 9 of the 10 largest mobile network providers, and hundreds of governments and educational organizations.

Gigamon is revolutionizing the way organizations run and secure their hybrid cloud infrastructure. Simply put, organizations today run over a complex jumble of old and modern networks and applications across on-prem and cloud environments, that are still being managed like it was the 90s, and a major reboot is needed.

Gigamon is the single platform that centralizes all data in motion to eliminate blind spots and optimize visibility for all cloud observability and security tools; it's the plumbing, the tap, and the water filter. Visibility becomes even more complex as hybrid deployments expand to include multi-cloud and container deployments that scale out and up across the most sophisticated enterprise networks today.
