Case Study: Large Australian Electrical Utility achieves up to $1M savings and an 80% reduction in traffic to tools with Gigamon

Large Electrical Utility Sees $1M in Savings, Plus an 80 Percent Reduction in Traffic to Tools

A large Australian electrical utility responsible for powering millions of homes and businesses faced overwhelmed monitoring tools, excessive traffic and tool sprawl, SSL/TLS decryption blind spots, and difficulty troubleshooting network data—risks that could impact operations, public safety and critical services.

Gigamon deployed its Deep Observability Pipeline (including GigaVUE‑FM, SSL/TLS decryption, inline bypass and de-duplication) to reduce irrelevant traffic and restore full visibility. The solution cut traffic to tools by 80%, extended the life of existing tools, delivered $500K–$1M in savings, achieved full ROI in 6–12 months, improved threat detection and earned top customer ratings.
