Gigamon has opened a new office in Riyadh, reinforcing its commitment to customers in Saudi Arabia and the Middle East. The expansion gives organizations access to the Gigamon Deep Observability Pipeline, helping them gain full visibility in an era of rapid AI adoption and digital transformation. Gigamon also introduced Gigamon Insights, an agentic AI tool built for network telemetry to provide real-time guidance for Security and IT teams, further advancing the company’s AI vision.
Gigamon’s regional expansion comes as Saudi organizations face growing pressure to secure hybrid cloud environments against advanced AI-powered threats while managing surging AI workloads. A 2025 survey shows 55% of global firms say current tools miss modern threats, and one in three report network traffic has more than doubled due to AI. Gigamon addresses this with network-derived telemetry—packets, flows, and metadata—integrated into customers’ existing cloud, security, and observability platforms. This combination of telemetry and MELT data delivers the deep observability needed 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.”
Addressing Critical Visibility Gaps in the Kingdom
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.”
STC Honored as a GigaHero for Customer Excellence
The regional expansion supports the company’s growing customer base, including Saudi Telecom Company (STC), which was recognized as a GigaHero at the annual Gigamon Visualyze Bootcamp customer conference. STC was recognized for its use of the Gigamon Deep Observability Pipeline, integrating with a powerful mix of security tools to secure and manage its hybrid cloud infrastructure.
“At STC, our commitment to leading the Kingdom’s digital transformation is guided by STC’s vision to be a world class digital leader providing innovative services and enabling a secure digital future,” said Ryain H. Rajihi, design director at STC Cybersecurity. “The Our deep observability solution from Gigamon has proven instrumental in fortifying our defenses, safeguarding national infrastructure, and ensuring the delivery of trusted, high-quality services. Through this partnership, we continue to embody our core values: being agile, committed, and driven to create meaningful impact in everything we do.”
