Top 5 ways a digital twin can supercharge security
Security teams need better context to manage risk in complex hybrid networks. This session shows how a network digital twin delivers real-time visibility to prioritize vulnerabilities, validate Zero Trust policies, detect misconfigurations, and visualize blast radius. Forward Networks' Mike Lossmann demonstrates how the network digital twin "supercharges" SecOps without agents or disruption—ideal for security engineers and analysts modernizing their workflows.
Security teams are under pressure to manage risk, validate Zero Trust policies, and respond to threats in increasingly complex hybrid networks. Traditional tools offer limited context—and that’s where a network digital twin changes the game.

In this session, Forward Networks Technical Evangelist Mike Lossmann will demonstrate how a mathematically-accurate digital replica of your network can deliver the visibility and context SecOps teams need to:

Prioritize vulnerabilities based on real exposure paths

Instantly visualize blast radius and attacker reachability

Continuously validate firewall, segmentation, and Zero Trust policies

Detect and investigate misconfigurations before they cause damage

Ensure cloud security matches on-prem standards

You'll see real examples of how network digital twin technology eliminates blind spots, accelerates incident response, and strengthens your security posture—without deploying agents or disrupting operations.

Ideal for: Security operations engineers, threat response analysts, and network security leads looking to modernize their workflows.
