AI-native platform puts AI agents and Fortress analysts to work closing cyber supply chain risk across critical infrastructure, at the scale new threats demand

ORLANDO, Fla., [November 10, 2026] – Fortress.ai (Fortress), the AI-powered risk management company serving critical infrastructure and national security, today launched the Fortress Command Platform, an AI-native risk platform that helps utilities, federal agencies and defense organizations manage cyber supply chain risk at the scale new threats demand. The Fortress Command Platform ingests, analyzes and enriches data across critical supply chains and the systems they deliver, deploys AI agents to act on the exposures that threaten operations, and puts Fortress analysts to work driving remediation to closure and documenting the results.

Critical infrastructure risk is being turned upside down. Supply chains are being redrawn by geopolitics and energy dislocation, a historic data center build-out, the reshoring of manufacturing and the arrival of AI itself. Infrastructure and the supply chains behind it are now a front line of geopolitical competition, attacked three ways: kinetically, economically, and through cyber-attacks and espionage.

The result is far more risk than human teams can find, prioritize and fix alone. AI is the answer, and adversaries already know it. But AI is new, and on its own it cannot yet be trusted to act where a mistake carries operational consequences. The Fortress Command Platform closes that gap with responsible AI: AI does the volume, Fortress experts validate and act, and organizations keep up with the scale of these new risks without trusting AI to act alone.

The Fortress Command Platform manages cyber risk across an organization's supply chain and the assets it delivers. Fortress combines AI, the customer's environment data, and its proprietary vendor, product, and vulnerability intelligence to prioritize what matters, then puts Fortress analysts to work driving remediation with vendors to closure. Not alerts. Outcomes.

"Critical infrastructure operators and federal agencies need clear answers about what puts their operations at risk and what to do next. They have enough alerts. They need outcomes," said Alex Santos, Co-Founder and CEO of Fortress. "AI brings speed and scale, but delivering results also requires people who understand the customer's environment and can help get the work done. Success means customers know what needs attention, have the support to address it, and can demonstrate what has been resolved."

For organizations responsible for essential services and national security, identifying risk is only the beginning. Findings scattered across systems and teams make it hard to determine what needs immediate attention, who owns it, and whether the work is complete. Resolving an exposure often requires coordination across security teams, operational staff, and outside suppliers, with each competing for limited time and resources.

The Fortress Command Platform connects findings with the operational context and hands-on support needed to move that work forward. Fortress rebuilt its platform with AI at the core enabling continuous analysis across vendors, assets, and compliance requirements, while Fortress analysts validate critical findings, assess their implications, and work alongside customer teams to act.

From risk findings to verified action

The Fortress Command Platform helps customers address three connected challenges:

  • Determining what needs attention: Connects information across vendors, products, and cyber assets to prioritize exposures based on their potential impact on operations and mission.
  • Moving remediation forward: Combines analyst validation with hands-on support to coordinate action across vendors and customer teams, with clear responsibilities and tracked progress.
  • Demonstrating results: Documents validated findings, remediation actions, and remaining risks so security teams, leadership, and boards can assess progress, with evidence to support audits and regulatory reviews.

The Fortress Command Platform unifies disciplines that have historically lived in separate tools and teams: governance, risk and compliance (GRC), third-party risk management (TPRM), cyber supply chain risk management (C-SCRM), software supply chain security, vulnerability management and AI governance. Connecting these disciplines lets organizations assess how supplier, technology and compliance risk affect one another and determine where action is needed.

AI agents continuously ingest, analyze and enrich data across vendors, products and the information technology (IT) and operational technology (OT) assets they deliver, then take action on what they find. Fortress analysts validate critical findings and work with vendors and customer teams to address them.

This approach supports decisions throughout the technology lifecycle, from evaluating suppliers and purchasing products to deploying technology securely and managing emerging exposures. Customers gain a clearer view of what puts their operations at risk, support to address it, and evidence of the work completed.
