FutureFeed, a leading compliance platform for NIST SP 800-171 and CMMC, has announced a partnership with Teramis, a provider of fully automated Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) discovery and continuous monitoring. Under the agreement, Teramis' CUI discovery capabilities are embedded directly into the FutureFeed Cyber-GRC platform, offering partners new service offerings and providing contractors with a continuously monitored, evidence-based CUI boundary that assessors can review.
Teramis replaces interviews and assumptions with data, automatically identifying CUI in file types that other solutions miss, including AutoCAD drawings, PDFs, images, and scanned documents. It also surfaces spillage outside the boundary before it becomes a reportable incident, with up to 99.99% accuracy. The tool is already trusted by defense contractors supporting more than $10 billion in defense programs.
"Every CMMC engagement begins with the same question - where is the CUI? For too long the answer has come from interviews, assumptions, and hope, which is not a foundation anyone can defend in an assessment," said Mark Berman, CEO of FutureFeed. "Teramis replaces guesswork with evidence, automatically. That's the certainty our partners and the contractors they serve deserve."
Brandon Sessions, President of Teramis, added: "The hardest part of protecting CUI is knowing where it lives. Manual scoping doesn't scale, and it doesn't hold up. Our tool finds CUI automatically, across the file types everyone else misses, and shows contractors exactly where their data is. Partnering with FutureFeed embeds CUI discovery directly into the Cyber-GRC platform - where it's reviewed by assessors and used by IT teams to continuously monitor for spillage."
This integration is significant for the CMMC ecosystem because it addresses a critical challenge: accurately scoping CUI boundaries. Manual methods are prone to error and can lead to compliance gaps. By automating discovery and monitoring, the partnership enables contractors to maintain continuous compliance and reduce the risk of reportable incidents. For assessors, the evidence-based approach provides verifiable data to support CMMC assessments.
FutureFeed, with more than 1,400 clients and 350+ partners across the Defense Industrial Base (DIB), delivers tools for achieving and sustaining CMMC compliance. Teramis serves government agencies, defense contractors, and advisory firms, and its tool is trusted by organizations supporting over $10 billion in defense programs.
