Gigamon announced the integration of the Gigamon Hawk Deep Observability Pipeline and Gigamon ThreatINSIGHT Network Detection and Response (NDR) solution with Sumo Logic, the SaaS analytics platform, to enable reliable and secure cloud-native applications.

This partnership of industry leaders optimizes cloud performance to contain the escalating costs associated with data exchange and storage while enabling enterprise IT organizations to leverage the power of deep observability to simplify the management of hybrid cloud deployments and improve their overall security posture.

The two most prevalent challenges of modern cloud infrastructures are their increased complexity, driven by the acceleration of digital transformation, and the blind spots created by an array of disparate tools spread out across hybrid cloud infrastructures. The Gigamon Hawk Deep Observability Pipeline now integrates seamlessly with Sumo Logic to deliver the rich network context and attributes of all network traffic to visualize and identify rogue activities such as crypto-mining and P2P traffic that impair both security and performance. Gigamon ThreatINSIGHT NDR delivers relevant, rich contextual data to Sumo Logic Cloud SIEM to enable faster triage and simplify investigation efforts, fortifying security across the environment.

“This collaboration with Gigamon reflects the common goal of enabling our customers to make data-driven decisions, in real-time, to improve the security and operational efficiency of their cloud deployments,” said John Coyle, SVP of Strategic Alliances at Sumo Logic. “Gaining deep observability into all data in motion is the key to reaping the benefits of a secure, resilient digital infrastructure.”

“Security blind spots and performance challenges are unfortunately common in many hybrid cloud deployments today,” said Michael Dickman, chief product officer at Gigamon. “Gigamon Hawk, ThreatINSIGHT and Sumo Logic combine to help IT organizations assure security and compliance governance while lowering the operational overhead of managing hybrid and multi-cloud infrastructure.”

Both organizations are deeply integrated within the AWS ecosystem with Gigamon recently receiving AWS ISV Accelerate designation which followed the integrations of the GigaVUE Cloud Suite into AWS Outposts and the Gigamon Hawk Deep Observability Pipeline with the AWS Gateway Load Balancer. Sumo Logic is the cloud-native backbone that secures and protects against modern threats and delivers insights into cloud infrastructures that allows enterprises to extend the value of their existing AWS investments.
