Gigamon Application Metadata Intelligence provides deep packet inspection capabilities to extract over 6,000 metadata attributes from more than 4,000 applications, enabling visibility into layers 4-7 of network traffic. It identifies applications even when traffic is encrypted and eliminates hybrid-cloud blind spots, including East-West and North-South traffic. AMI integrates with security and observability tools such as SIEM and performance monitoring systems through pre-built connectors and templates, supporting use cases like threat hunting, network performance monitoring, and troubleshooting. The solution exports metadata in formats such as IPFIX, CEF, and JSON, and provides insights into user actions, service identification, and mobile network traffic, enhancing network security and performance without requiring additional tools or changes to existing monitoring processes.
