Gigamon
GIGAMON + PLIXER
Turn Network Visibility Into Faster Investigations
Gigamon enriches network traffic with application intelligence and metadata. Plixer transforms that data into actionable investigations, helping security and operations teams quickly understand what happened, who was involved, and what to do next.
Gain visibility into users, devices, applications, and communications while reducing investigation time and accelerating incident response.
Why Gigamon and Plixer?
Together, Gigamon and Plixer help teams move beyond traffic visibility and into investigation.
Gigamon provides rich network context. Plixer collects, correlates, stores, and analyzes network activity, helping teams quickly answer critical questions surrounding security events, performance issues, and operational incidents
Benefits
- Accelerate security investigations
- Improve threat detection and response
- Understand user, device, and application activity
- Increase visibility across hybrid environments
- Reduce time spent gathering evidence
- Retain and analyze network activity at scale
Investigate Faster with Network Evidence
When suspicious activity occurs, teams need more than an alert. They need context.
By combining Gigamon-enriched metadata with Plixer’s analytics and historical network visibility, analysts can quickly determine:
- Who initiated the activity
- Which systems communicated
- What applications were involved
- When activity occurred
- How events unfolded across the environment
The result is faster investigations, stronger evidence, and reduced response times.
Ideal Use Cases
Threat Hunting
Identify suspicious communications, unusual behavior, and indicators of compromise.
Incident Response
Accelerate investigations with immediate access to historical network activity and context.
Application Troubleshooting
Understand application behavior and quickly isolate performance issues.
Compliance and Forensics
Maintain historical network records for investigations, audits, and post-incident analysis.
See the Combined Value in Action
Gigamon provides the network context. Plixer provides the visibility, analytics, and investigative workflows that turn that context into action.
Together, they help security and operations teams investigate faster, respond with confidence, and gain deeper insight into network activity.
