CrossSight provides agencies with fast, audit-ready insight to address growing third-party risk and documentation challenges.
Core4ce, a federal contractor specializing in defense technology solutions and professional services, has joined with InfoBase Publishers, Inc., creator of the DACIS competitive intelligence platform, to launch CrossSight which will be available early January 2026. The announcement was made today from the floor of the American Aerospace & Defense Summit. The AI-driven product integrates Core4ce’s AI/ML engine and proprietary data holdings with InfoBase’s DACIS platform to generate real-time, defensible due diligence reports.
Building on that foundation, CrossSight incorporates cyber intelligence, open-source analysis, and Core4ce’s deep and dark web data to deliver complete, audit-ready risk assessments in minutes. Third-party exposure remains a major point of failure across the federal landscape. According to SecurityScorecard, 58 percent of breaches involving the top 100 U.S. federal contractors originated through third-party attack vectors. CrossSight helps agencies get ahead of those risks by consolidating hard-to-access information into a single, defensible view of ownership, affiliations, and potential vulnerabilities, enabling acquisition, compliance, and M&A teams to evaluate partners and suppliers with greater speed and confidence.
“CrossSight showcases the investments Core4ce has made in AI and machine learning and data innovation to help customers make rapid, well-informed decisions about partner selection, supplier risk, and program support,” said Todd Harbour, Managing Partner and Chief Technology Officer at Core4ce. “As federal initiatives like Golden Dome raise expectations for stronger supply chain oversight and the requirements of the Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification program, contractors will need clear insight into their own suppliers. CrossSight gives teams a practical way to demonstrate that readiness with speed and confidence.”
The partnership makes high-quality due diligence more accessible by offering fast, pay-per-report assessments without the need for a large enterprise deployment. More than 400 organizations already rely on InfoBase’s DACIS platform, and CrossSight extends that ecosystem with automated analysis and unique datasets that deepen decision support. This need is growing as agencies place greater emphasis on strengthening supply-chain security. Recent federal efforts, including updated guidance from the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and increased scrutiny of foreign influence in technology supply chains, are pushing organizations to monitor vendors more closely, identify weaknesses earlier, and ensure suppliers meet consistent security expectations.
“As due diligence becomes more central to national security and program success, we looked through that market lens and, as suspected, found that aerospace and defense teams continue to struggle with due diligence solutions that match the speed and complexity of this sector,” said Eric Hess, CEO of InfoBase. “That’s why we’re excited to partner with Core4ce and bring CrossSight forward—answering the demand for specialized, domain-specific intelligence.”
As agencies face increasing pressure to validate suppliers and strengthen supply-chain security, CrossSight offers a practical path forward. The capability brings together trusted government-grade data, advanced analytics, and intuitive outputs that support both rapid screening and deeper investigative reviews.
