Gigamon has appointed Caerl Murray as Country Manager for Australia and New Zealand, adding a regional leader as it targets growth in both markets.

Murray will oversee the company's strategy across Australia and New Zealand, with responsibility for customer engagement, channel partnerships and broader adoption of Gigamon's deep observability products in the region.

He brings more than 20 years of experience in technology sales and leadership across cloud computing, infrastructure monitoring, managed services, systems integration and distribution. His previous roles include leadership positions at LogicMonitor and Alibaba Cloud, as well as roles at Ricoh IT Services, Dimension Data and Express Data.

The appointment comes as organisations in Australia and New Zealand increase their use of cloud systems and artificial intelligence across public cloud, private cloud and on-premises infrastructure. That shift has increased demands for visibility and security as businesses try to track how applications, workloads and AI systems operate across distributed environments.

Gigamon provides technology that delivers network-derived telemetry to security and observability tools, including application metadata, packets and flows. Its platform is designed to give customers visibility into hybrid cloud environments, including encrypted traffic and east-west traffic inside networks.

David Land, Regional Vice President at Gigamon, said Murray's background in the local market and partner network would be important as customers face increasingly complex technology environments.

“Caerl brings extensive regional experience, strong partner relationships, and a deep understanding of the challenges facing enterprise customers in Australia and New Zealand today,” said David Land, Regional Vice President, Gigamon.

He added: “As organisations modernise their infrastructure and accelerate AI adoption, the need for greater visibility and control continues to grow. Caerl's leadership will be instrumental in expanding our market presence and helping more customers realise the value of deep observability to secure and manage their infrastructure.”

Murray is expected to focus on expanding Gigamon's customer base in the region, strengthening channel relationships and working with existing customers on their use of the company's products. The role places him at the centre of Gigamon's efforts to deepen its position in the enterprise market across Australia and New Zealand.

Regional focus

Australia and New Zealand remain important markets for technology suppliers selling cloud, security and monitoring tools, with enterprise customers balancing new AI projects against longstanding requirements for governance, performance and cyber defence. Vendors in this market also rely heavily on channel partners and service providers to reach customers and support deployments.

Murray said the company sees room to grow as organisations deal with more complex operating environments.

“Gigamon has a significant opportunity in ANZ as organisations look for better ways to secure and manage increasingly complex environments,” said Caerl Murray, Country Manager, ANZ, Gigamon.

He added: “I'm looking forward to working closely with our customers, partners, and local team to build on the company's strong foundation in the region. My priority is to help organisations gain the visibility and intelligence they need to strengthen security, improve operational efficiency, and confidently advance their cloud and AI strategies.”

Gigamon serves more than 4,000 organisations worldwide, including 83 of the Fortune 100, as well as mobile network operators and public sector agencies. Murray's appointment gives the company a dedicated leader for Australia and New Zealand as competition for cloud security and observability spending remains active across the region.
