Hybrid cloud infrastructure is complex and time-consuming to secure, manage and maintain. Modern organizations must contend with multiple cloud providers and a myriad cloud, security, and observability tools, which add layers of complexity and make it challenging to detect security threats and performance anomalies. 

The DoD must not only face these challenges, but also must account for disrupted, disconnected, intermittent and low-bandwidth (DDIL) cloud environments that support theaters of operation. This webinar included how the hybrid-cloud network is the foundation of the hyper-connected digital infrastructure, and why network visibility and control are paramount for the proper operation and protection of all the network components and capabilities. 

During this webinar, attendees learned how to: 
- Access network traffic insights without blind spots through Gigamon's Deep Observability Pipeline 
- Empower their mission to safeguard critical network infrastructure and assets with high-performance, next-generation network visibility 
- Become agile for edge and tactical cloud network deployments 
- Normalize and consolidate network traffic insights with one Visibility Fabric

Multi-Cloud Deep Observability From the Enterprise Cloud to the Tactical Edge

Organizations are exploring solutions to fortify their security posture as the threat landscape becomes more sophisticated and the number of breaches skyrockets. As teams look for new solutions, the challenge remains:   

How does an organization secure network traffic once it crosses a firewall and becomes East-West traffic?  

Join us to learn how you can build a security posture that combines firewalls with E-W visibility to enable successful detection and response of security issues.  

In this webinar, you will:   
- Learn the importance of integrating East-West visibility into your security posture  
- Discover the tools you need to effectively analyze East-West traffic  
- Understand how to create a scalable security posture that combines covers North-South, East-West, and encrypted traffic

Why Firewalls Are No Longer Enough

As hybrid cloud architectures become the new normal for enterprises and government organizations, many IT and Security leaders struggle with maintaining the balance of meeting business demands for faster application development and deployment with the need to maintain and enhance their hybrid cloud security posture.  

Is achieving such a balance possible?  

Join us to learn how Micron Technologies successfully fortified their security posture as they rapidly scaled their usage of virtual and containerized environments to support new applications. In this webinar, you will:

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

Zero Trust was introduced nearly 15 years ago, but misconceptions and uncertainty around definition, process, and strategy continue to hinder many Zero Trust initiatives.
