NetScout Champions AI-Driven Automation in Telecom Networks
NETSCOUT SYSTEMS, INC., a leading provider of AIOps, cybersecurity, and observability solutions, is at the forefront of telecom innovation through its recent participation in TM Forum’s NeuroNOC Catalyst project. This groundbreaking initiative was showcased at the DTW Ignite 2025 event, which broke records for its extensive representation of Communication Service Providers (CSPs) and participating countries. NETSCOUT’s involvement underscores its commitment to advancing network automation and intelligence, helping shape the future of self-reliant telecom operations. The project aims to harness the power of artificial intelligence to create more resilient and efficient network environments for providers worldwide.
Driving Innovation with the NeuroNOC Catalyst Project
The NeuroNOC Catalyst, an innovation project by the global telecom and tech alliance TM Forum, explores how AI agents and closed-loop automation can enable self-healing network operations. The core objective is to use high-quality, real-time network data to proactively identify, diagnose, and resolve issues without human intervention. This initiative was a significant collaborative effort, developed alongside industry giants like Amazon Web Services, Accenture, Symphonica, and Sand Technologies. The project was championed by a diverse group of global carriers, including BT Group, Telecom Argentina, Omantel, and Turknet. Notably, the initiative also featured prominent African operators such as Axian Telecom and Safaricom, highlighting the continent’s growing role in pioneering next-generation network management solutions.
This collaborative venture demonstrates a practical path toward autonomous networks, which are crucial for managing the increasing complexity and scale of modern digital services. By contributing its expertise in observability and DDoS attack protection, NETSCOUT is helping to build a framework for smarter, more secure, and highly automated telecom infrastructures. The success of the NeuroNOC project paves the way for CSPs to enhance service reliability, reduce operational costs, and deliver a superior customer experience through intelligent, self-healing capabilities powered by advanced AIOps.
