Clemson University Balances Network Performance and Security with Help from Gigamon

Clemson University upgraded to a cutting-edge 100Gb network, which initially fell short in providing the NetFlow data essential for monitoring traffic and uncovering security vulnerabilities. By adopting the Gigamon Deep Observability Pipeline, the university reinstated NetFlow generation, increasing its throughput from 30,000 to 70,000 flows per second. This improvement bolstered network awareness and decreased false positives, greatly enhancing Clemson’s security framework and operational performance.
