Berkowitz is Chief Technology Officer of Gett Communications, where he says he plays doctor, both directly ministering to networks and also playing a physician on advanced systems for clinical medicine. Not limiting himself to the challenges of computers in medicine, he also is using medical and biological paradigms to deal with the complexity of modern networks. He has a special interest in applying infectious disease epidemiology to the problems of cybernetic disease, such as worms and virus.

In the Internet Research Task Force, he has worked on requirements for the successor to BGP and works with international operations forums such as NANOG, ARIN, and RIPE.

His previous books include the WAN Survival Guide, which deals with making choices about which service level agreements are needed and how to select technologies to meet them.
