Ms. Sagar brings more than 20 years of hands-on management experience to her role and has held positions of increasing responsibility and complexity, most recently as vice president of product operations at Gigamon. This newly created role will accelerate cross-functional alignment and help the company over-achieve its business objectives.

“On behalf of everyone at Gigamon, we are thrilled to welcome Sandhya and Chaim to the leadership team as we kick off 2023. Chaim’s impressive industry influence and passion for security will help us to fortify not only our internal security posture but also that of our customers, helping them to eliminate blind spots and secure their hybrid cloud infrastructure,” said Shane Buckley, president and CEO of Gigamon. “I look forward to leveraging Sandhya’s world-class operational expertise to improve alignment and focus on achieving our business objectives.”
