Case Study: Leading Public Employees’ Retirement System streamlines security costs and boosts visibility with Gigamon GigaSECURE®

Public Employees’ Retirement System Leverages GigaSECURE® to Streamline Security Costs and Increase Visibility

The Public Employees’ Retirement System needed a reliable, secure datacenter and full network visibility for its online portal used by more than 1.5 million members to manage retirement and healthcare benefits. The senior network engineer prioritized consistent access, regulatory compliance, and the ability to quickly troubleshoot issues as the environment moved from beta and scaled from 10Gb to 40Gb.

The organization deployed Gigamon’s GigaSECURE platform—GigaVUE‑HC2 visibility nodes, GigaSMART, GigaVUE‑TA1 and inline bypass TAPs—integrated with FireEye and Tealeaf to ensure the right traffic reaches security tools, capture web sessions for customer support, and run fair appliance comparisons. The solution reduced network complexity and appliance contention, lowered span‑port and security‑tool costs, improved visibility and troubleshooting, and now provides a scalable foundation the team relies on daily.
