Six Gigamon Channel Leaders Honored in CRN’s 2026 Women of the Channel List

Gigamon channel leaders recognized for channel-first strategy and commitment to partner-driven growth

Santa Clara, Calif. – May 18, 2026 — Gigamon, a leading deep observability company, today announced that CRN®, a brand of The Channel Company, has recognized six Gigamon leaders on its prestigious 2026 Women of the Channel list. The annual list honors women whose strategic leadership, channel expertise, and commitment to partner success are driving transformation and measurable business impact across the IT ecosystem.Based in London, Gregory will report to Gigamon Chief Revenue Officer John Giacomini. He will be responsible for driving revenue growth, expanding the partner ecosystem, and helping organizations to close critical visibility gaps as they adopt AI and cloud technologies.

As organizations face mounting operational complexity driven by hybrid cloud adoption, encrypted traffic growth, and AI-powered cyber threats, the Gigamon channel ecosystem plays a critical role in helping organizations strengthen security and improve operational resilience through deep observability.

According to market research firm 650 Group, Gigamon is the leading vendor in the deep observability market with a 51 percent market share in 2025. Through its channel-first approach, Gigamon helps organizations secure and manage hybrid cloud infrastructure by delivering network-derived telemetry directly to cloud, security, and observability tools, providing customers with the visibility needed to reduce risk, optimize tool performance, and accelerate threat detection and response.

New findings from the Gigamon 2026 Hybrid Cloud Security Survey of more than 1,000 Security and IT leaders underscore the growing urgency for complete visibility across modern environments. Of the 65 percent of organizations that reported breaches last year, 83 percent involved AI. The research reinforces the critical role trusted channel partners play in helping organizations modernize security operations while maximizing existing technology investments.

“At Gigamon, our partners are essential to helping customers navigate an increasingly dynamic threat landscape shaped by hybrid cloud complexity and the rapid rise of AI-driven attacks,” said John Giacomini, chief revenue officer at Gigamon. “This recognition from CRN reflects the strength of our channel ecosystem and the outstanding leadership of these women, who are helping partners deliver the visibility and security organizations need to confidently manage and protect modern infrastructure.”

The six honorees include:

  • Micaela DiVittorio, senior director, Americas field and channel marketing
  • Heather Howard, distribution account manager
  • Christine LoPresti, senior channel account manager
  • Helena Marsikova, senior channel marketing manager
  • Tracy Pallas, senior director, Americas channel sales

We’re proud to recognize their impact and look forward to seeing how they continue to shape the future of our industry.”
