Gigamon, a leading deep observability company, has announced the appointment of Damian Wilk as General Manager for EMEA Emerging Markets.
The company revealed that this strategic move supports its goal of accelerating growth across the region.
EMEA Emerging Markets are facing a rapidly evolving and AI-driven threat landscape. Gigamon reported that this has left many organizations exposed to growing cybersecurity risks.
As a result, deep observability has become critical for securing and managing today's hybrid cloud environments.
According to the Gigamon 2025 Hybrid Cloud Security Survey: 89% of Security and IT leaders agree deep observability is foundational for cloud security.
The Gigamon Deep Observability Pipeline helps eliminate blind spots, optimize network traffic, and improve tool efficiency by up to 90%.
Wilk, based in Dubai, will lead efforts across the Middle East, Africa, and Southern Europe. Gigamon stated that his role includes accelerating customer growth, expanding channel partnerships, and driving adoption of the Deep Observability Pipeline.
The appointment marks a strategic effort to enhance customer engagement and strengthen Gigamon's regional presence. The company revealed that the deep observability market grew 17% year-over-year in 2024.
Mark Coates, Vice President of EMEA at Gigamon, said Wilk is a dynamic sales leader with deep customer understanding and a strong track record.
Wilk shared that Gigamon is uniquely positioned to help organizations gain full visibility across hybrid cloud infrastructure. He emphasized the company's focus on customer-centric solutions that drive outcomes.
Wilk brings over two decades of enterprise sales leadership across the UK and EMEA. His experience includes roles at Rubrik, Veritas Technologies, Good Technology, and Cisco, where he led strategic initiatives in cybersecurity and data management.
Gigamon reported that this leadership change highlights its commitment to delivering greater value to customers and partners in key markets.
