Back in 2021, I was consulting for a manufacturing company that kept losing connection during their peak production hours. Their previous IT team had built something that worked perfectly during testing but crumbled under real-world pressure.
That's when I realized most network education focuses on textbook scenarios. But real businesses need networks that handle Monday morning chaos, unexpected traffic spikes, and equipment that's been running for years.
So we built Reflective Cortex around one simple idea: teach network management using actual business situations, not just theory.
