On February 18, CISA has added the recently published Palo Alto Networks CVE-2025-0108 to the list of known exploited vulnerabilities. To date, according to GreyNoise, there are over 25 known distinct public sources attempting exploitation. Unmitigated, this vulnerability can lead to significantly weakened network defenses and open doors for data leakages, financial compromises, and ransomware down the road.

As enterprises continue to adopt hybrid and multi-cloud environments, the complexity of managing network security has increased significantly. Attack Surface Management (ASM) has emerged as a critical capability for identifying, monitoring, and mitigating risks across these dynamic environments. Forward Networks’ innovative digital twin technology delivers a compelling solution that addresses the challenges of effective ASM practices.

Even before packets start flowing, enterprise networks are complex, data-intensive repositories of topology, configuration, and state information. This information is often required to solve operational issues—like finding sources of unwanted traffic drops or protocol configuration errors—or to find problems before they become issues. Yet, this valuable information typically goes untapped because getting at it requires too much work.

Managing complex networks can feel like an endless challenge, especially when critical data is scattered across multiple tools and systems. Conflicting sources of truth (SOTs) introduce risks, leaving IT teams uncertain about which data to trust. Without an accurate view of your network, tasks like CVE management, troubleshooting, and compliance become overwhelming—and potentially introduce risk into the network.

Forward Networks has been named an Outperformer in the 2024 GigaOm Radar for Network Validation for the third consecutive year. Among 15 vendors, Forward Networks achieved the highest overall score for key features and business criteria, cementing its position as an innovator and leader in the market.
