David Erickson, CEO of Forward Networks, gives an introduction into what the company is offering after coming out of stealth mode. The company is offering a network monitoring tool based on formal verification in a mathematical sense. Forward Network maps every place a packet could go in a network in a constantly updating model for their analysis. The company thinks of themselves as similar to Google offering algorithmic search in a world of web directories.
