As governments around the world accelerate digital transformation, cybersecurity strategies are being reshaped by hybrid cloud adoption, encrypted traffic growth, and Zero Trust mandates. In this evolving landscape, deep observability is emerging as a cornerstone of mission resilience.
Gigamon’s recent recognition as Frost & Sullivan’s 2026 Company of the Year for Global Network Observability in the Public Sector reflects a broader industry shift: visibility into data in motion is no longer optional it is foundational.
Public sector networks today span physical infrastructure, virtualised environments, public clouds, and containers. At the same time, encrypted and lateral traffic increasingly conceal threats from traditional security tools. Without comprehensive visibility, agencies face operational blind spots that undermine Zero Trust initiatives and regulatory compliance efforts.
The Gigamon Deep Observability Pipeline addresses this challenge by delivering trusted, network-derived telemetry packets, flows, and application metadata directly to security and observability platforms. By illuminating encrypted and east-west traffic, agencies can:
-
Close visibility gaps across complex hybrid environments
-
Strengthen Zero Trust architectures
-
Reduce tool sprawl and operational overhead
-
Improve performance monitoring and compliance validation
Trusted by more than 4,000 organisations worldwide including 83 of the Fortune 100 and public sector agencies at every level Gigamon provides AI-driven insights that help organisations detect concealed threats, resolve performance bottlenecks, and manage cost and complexity.
For public sector leaders, the stakes are particularly high. Critical services, national infrastructure, and sensitive citizen data depend on resilient digital systems. Deep observability enables agencies not just to defend against cyber threats, but to operate with greater confidence in increasingly AI-driven, data-intensive environments.
Recognition from Frost & Sullivan underscores Gigamon’s impact in this space, but more importantly, it highlights a turning point for public sector cybersecurity: complete visibility into data in motion is now central to securing and sustaining modern government operations.
