Network Digital Twin: Security + Reliability, the Power of AI, and Fiserv Customer Testimonial

In this product introduction, Mike Lossmann explains the secret sauce inside Forward Network's flagship digital twin software, Forward Enterprise, and how network digital twin benefits more than just “networking people”. Forward Enterprise analyzes every possible network behavior, traces where every packet could ever go, and gives every user a queryable vendor-independent data model so NetOps, SecOps, CloudOps, and even Compliance teams can get a mathematically-accurate view of the network.

Nikhil Handigol demonstrates how generative A.I. unlocks network insights and shows the delegates how Forward Networks now seamlessly incorporates generative A.I. into its network digital twin software. Inside the most popular product feature, Network Query Engine, every user can perform natural language queries to access crucial network data in seconds.

Before Fiserv became a Forward Networks customer, the network team was faced with solving several enterprise network challenges: addressing CVE events, managing the perimeter, audits and compliance findings, and smoothly enabling automation. In this customer testimonial, Michael Wynston describes how Forward Enterprise uniquely delivered solutions for the known list of challenges, and also provided unexpected value by lowering the cost of data and validating network intent + network inventory.
