Gigamon, a deep observability company, has announced that Chaim Mazal has been named Chief Security Officer (CSO). Mazal will report directly to President and CEO Shane Buckley.
He will be responsible for global security, information technology, network operations, governance, risk, compliance and internal business systems, as well as the security of Gigamon product offerings.
Prior to joining Gigamon, Mazal served in several executive leadership positions, most recently at Kandji as the Senior Vice President of Technology and CISO. In his new position, Mazal will continue his involvement with the Open Web Application Security Project (OWASP) Foundation and maintain his seat on several advisory boards, including Cloudflare, Gitlab and Lacework.
