Title:

Multi-Domain Threat Detection: Expanding the CDFC Platform with OSINT and Cross-Domain Intelligence Correlation

Agreement Number:

1043390

Agreement Value:

$160,904.00

Agreement Date:

Apr 1, 2026 - Mar 31, 2027

Description:

The Phase 2 of Beaufort's Cyber Defence Fusion Centre (CDFC) platform builds directly on a TRL 5 prototype by adding OSINT to address hybrid threats. AI-driven NLP models will detect coordinated public messaging, cross-correlate signals across cyber, dark web, and public domains, and generate daily quantitative risk indicators — enabling Canadian critical infrastructure operators to identify complex threats earlier and respond with greater confidence. By completion, the Momentum Insights platform — Canada's only sovereign multi-domain threat fusion product — advances from TRL 5 to TRL 7 (pilot-ready).
