About Forward Networks

Forward Networks is a tech startup that operates in the network modeling sector. The company offers a platform that helps businesses improve their network security, gain visibility across their network instances, and ensure that network behavior aligns with their intentions. This is achieved through the use of a digital twin, a virtual model of a physical system, which allows for improved security, prevention of outages, and risk reduction in operations.

Read full description

The company's platform is designed to serve a wide range of clients, including Fortune 50 institutions and top-level federal agencies. It provides a single source of truth for all global network information, making it instantly searchable and allowing for proactive verification of network behavior. This results in improved efficiency for Security Operations Centers (SOCs) through better management of attack surfaces, vulnerabilities, and security postures.

Forward Networks operates in the multi-cloud environment market, providing end-to-end visibility and validating security controls through a single pane of glass. This allows network, security, and cloud operations teams to troubleshoot issues faster and even anticipate problems, thereby preventing costly outages.

The company's business model is based on providing its platform to clients for a fee, which results in significant savings for the clients by reducing the Mean Time to Resolution (MTTR) and lowering operational expenses (OPEX).
