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.

Making security systems more effective with less cost

Ransomware is a devastating cyberthreat that continues to grow and wreak havoc throughout all industries. CISOs have a deep desire to protect against every threat they possibly can, and eliminate every potential blind spot, but rarely have unlimited budget, time, and people to do so. In this webinar, hear from Michael Dickman, Chief Product Officer at Gigamon, and Alan Weckel, Co-Founder and Analyst at the 650 Group, about how you can uplevel your defense against ransomware while keeping costs in check.  

- Hear best practices for making Security investments go further, achieving better signal-to-noise while managing tooling costs 
- Walk away understanding how to detect encrypted lateral movement from a threat actor 
- Take SIEMs, NDRs, IDSs, and Firewalls to the next level

5 Pragmatic Tips for Preventing Ransomware

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

Regardless of which Zero Trust model you are utilizing, there are some universal solutions that will be common amongst them. Threat actors are observed using the same tactics and techniques over and over again. In this presentation, we will briefly examine two top models and then explore what that means on a practical level. We will broadly look at some traditional network visibility solutions and challenge some of the norms around these systems. Do they really solve the problem in the best way in a world where everything is encrypted and threat actors hide in plain sight? 

Key takeaways:  
- Can classic tools such as logging really solve for the visibility gap? 
- How to deal with the encryption/decryption paradox? 
- What method can solve for lateral visibility?

Zero Trust in An Encrypted World

M-21-31 deadlines are closing in, please join us to learn how Gigamon can help you meet these deadlines while maximizing the investment you’ve already made in your monitoring and security tools. This practical webinar will focus on how Gigamon helps agencies capture, manage, and retain the logging and other data – including encrypted and IoT data - to ensure M-21-31 compliance.  

In this webinar, we will: 
- Review the M-21-31 logging, data capture and retention requirements. 
- Identify some of the most common problems in meeting these requirements. 
- Discuss access and capture of Encrypted, Containers, and IoT/OT data. 
- Demonstrate how Gigamon enables your existing tools to accelerate M-21-31 compliance. 

This session will be led by Gigamon government and technical experts and will focus on practical solutions to meeting the challenges of M-21-31 compliance.

Navigating M-21-31 Compliance

Observability provides enormous business value, but organizations that implement it often suffer from data collection sprawl, and incomplete network application visibility. This discussion will focus on how Gigamon improves the value of SIEM and Observability tools by adding Network Intelligence and more to the toolset.

Join host Jon Brown, Senior Analyst – Observability at Enterprise Strategy Group and Martyn Crew, Senior Director at Gigamon as they discuss:
• What network intelligence brings to observability
• Where is observability creating the most business value?
• What’s the role of deep observability in Zero Trust?

What Gigamon Brings to Observability

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™ Technology

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.

Cloud Tools and Product Success Starts (and Ends) with the Data

The Department of Defense is marching toward Zero Trust, following review of their implementation plans by the Defense Department (DoD) Zero Trust Portfolio Management Office (ZTMPMO) in fall 2023. Their progress will not be in lockstep, but their objectives are aligned. In this keynote address, Randy Resnick, Chief Zero Trust Office of the Department of Defense, will review the process and lessons learned, outline agency priorities for 2024 as adversarial behavior escalates, and provide a candid assessment of the obstacles that must be overcome to reach Target Level Zero Trust across the DoD by 2027.

Next Steps in the DoD’s Advance Toward Zero Trust

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. Security and IT leaders are grappling with modern and legacy environments that all need to be considered as organizations build their “Zero Trust plane” while flying it. But the time is now.

Join this discussion with Will Townsend from Moor Insights and Strategy and Michael Dickman from Gigamon as they review the critical principles around Zero Trust and key considerations for implementing Zero Trust in complex environments.

In this 30-minute GigaChat, they’ll cover:
- The definition of Zero Trust and the only NIST principles you need to know
- Why data — not just identity — must be central to Zero Trust
- The challenges and opportunities with Zero Trust in the cloud
- Real world examples of how organizations are successfully implementing Zero Trust today

Architecting Your Zero Trust Journey

Critical infrastructure and industrial organizations depend on operational technology (OT) to execute, monitor, and control physical processes. In today’s threat environment, IT is needed to configure and manage OT devices and collect data about OT operations to ensure enterprise-wide cybersecurity. As organizations work to implement Zero Trust, the necessary intersection of IT and OT introduces complexity and opportunity. This cross-industry panel will discuss the organizational and technical changes required to implement Zero Trust across IT and OT and their challenges and successes along the way.
