SANTA CLARA, Calif.,
April 27, 2017 /PRNewswire/ --
Gigamon Inc. (NYSE: GIMO), the industry leader in traffic
visibility solutions, announced today that Arthur (Art) W. Coviello Jr. is joining its
board of directors. Art brings over 30 years of security, financial
and operational management experience. He is recognized for his
many achievements including his two-decade career at RSA. As CEO of
RSA and later as an EVP at EMC (which acquired RSA in 2006), he
oversaw RSA's growth from $25 million
in 1995 to $1 billion in
2014.
"Art Coviello is one of the most
recognized and influential pioneers who defined the cybersecurity
industry," said Corey Mulloy,
chairman of the Gigamon Board of Directors. "His deep understanding
of the market and proven experience will play a critical role in
driving the Company's leadership as pervasive visibility
transcends into core security, cloud and virtualized
environments."
Coviello currently sits on the board of directors at EnerNOC,
Inc., a provider of energy intelligence software and services, and
Synchrony Financial. He also serves as a venture partner at Rally
Ventures and plays key roles in national and international
cybersecurity initiatives.
"Gigamon is on the cusp of transforming the security market as
traditional security architectures cannot keep up with the
increasing loads of traffic and network performance demands," said
Art Coviello. "I'm excited about the
company, its leadership team and innovative visibility platform
that will become the foundation of modern security and cloud
infrastructures. The opportunity to build and grow Gigamon to its
full potential is an adventure not to miss."
