Unlock Autonomy with Forward

Elyor Khakimov details how the combination of a definitive network digital twin and advanced AI logic shifts network engineering from manual risk mitigation to fully autonomous execution. Traditionally, complex migrations require weeks of coordination, leaving engineers with immense anxiety right up to deployment. By utilizing an AI networking agent powered by a large language model […]

Eliminate Risks with Forward

Forward introduces a solution to a fundamental, long-standing gap in networking: the lack of a deep, end-to-end behavioral understanding of complex, multi-vendor environments and the inability to test intended configuration updates safely. To address these vulnerabilities, Forward developed a mathematically accurate digital twin platform that connects to all physical, virtual, and cloud-based network devices. By […]

Cisco Unified Branch: Securing & Automating Your Branch in the Al era

Arpitha Shetty and Simarbir Singh presented the modular strategy behind Cisco Unified Branch, utilizing architecture standards categorized by size. Small branches rely on a single-tier footprint consisting of one router, one switch, and one access point, while medium deployments layer on redundant edge routing alongside a switch stack. Large branches scale out into multi-tier topologies […]

The Future of Resilient Switching: Zero-Downtime, Quantum Readiness, and Vulnerability Protection

Switching infrastructure is being reinvented to meet the demands of AI workloads, evolving threats, and the looming quantum era. In this Tech Field Day session, we explore how zero-downtime operations, quantum-resistant cryptography, and embedded vulnerability protection are transforming switches from passive forwarding devices into intelligent, self-defending platforms. Join us for a deep, no-hype look at […]

Cisco AgenticOps Powered by Cloud Control

Cisco showcased AgenticOps powered by Cisco Cloud Control, a unified platform designed to serve as a single pane of glass for cross-domain telemetry and infrastructure operations. The architecture is anchored by a layer of trusted agents that operate within an agentic loop across five critical stages: sense, diagnose, remediate, validate, and deploy. The foundational sense […]

Cisco Securing AI Inferencing

Javed Asghar presented Cisco’s emerging strategy for securing AI inferencing workloads, expanding on architectural concepts originally disclosed at the NVIDIA GTC conference. While Cisco’s existing Smart Switches serve as an effective entry-level security option for frontend fabrics running lower-capacity systems, they face strict performance limitations when handling the massive 400 Gbps and 800 Gbps traffic […]

Cisco Secure Data Center Networking: Security Built Into the Fabric
