Gigamon announced the opening of a new office in Riyadh, strengthening its commitment to customers in Saudi Arabia. This strategic expansion enables organizations across the Kingdom to access the Gigamon Deep Observability Pipeline, addressing the critical need for complete visibility in an era of rapid AI adoption and digital transformation. The company also announced Gigamon Insights, an agentic AI application purpose-built for network-derived telemetry that will deliver immediate guidance for Security and IT operations teams, the latest AI offering as the company continues to advance its AI vision.
The regional expansion comes as organizations across Saudi Arabia face mounting pressure to secure hybrid cloud infrastructure against increasingly sophisticated AI-powered threats while managing the explosive growth of AI workloads. According to the 2025 Hybrid Cloud Security Survey, 55 percent of global organizations report their current security tools are failing to detect modern threats, while one in three organizations report that network traffic has more than doubled due to AI workloads. The company provides network-derived telemetry, including packets, flows, and application-aware metadata, directly to the cloud, security, and observability platforms that customers already trust. This powerful combination of network telemetry and MELT data delivers the deep observability today’s organizations need to secure and manage hybrid cloud infrastructure.
“With AI adoption accelerating and cyber threats growing more sophisticated, organizations across the Middle East are under pressure to secure and manage increasingly complex hybrid cloud environments,” said Shane Buckley, president and CEO at Gigamon. “By expanding our presence in Riyadh, we are deepening our commitment to the region and delivering AI-powered deep observability. With network-derived telemetry from Gigamon, our customers achieve new levels of visibility and efficiency to strengthen security, reduce complexity, and realize greater return on their investments.”
The establishment of the Saudi Arabia office directly addresses urgent market needs across the Middle East, particularly as AI is impacting organizations’ abilities to secure and manage infrastructure. Companies in the Kingdom face similar challenges, where nearly 40 percent of organizations remain unsure of their visibility into AI usage patterns.
“As Saudi Arabia accelerates its Vision 2030 digital transformation agenda, organizations require unprecedented visibility into their hybrid cloud infrastructure to secure against evolving threats,” said Damian Wilk, general manager for EMEA Emerging Markets at Gigamon. “Our expansion into the Kingdom demonstrates our commitment to providing local organizations with the deep observability capabilities they need to safely embrace AI innovation while maintaining robust cybersecurity postures.”
