FutureFeed, a leading compliance platform for NIST SP 800-171 and CMMC, announced a partnership with Teramis to embed fully automated Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) discovery and continuous monitoring into the FutureFeed Cyber-GRC platform. The integration aims to replace manual interviews and assumptions with data-driven evidence, giving contractors a continuously monitored, evidence-based CUI boundary that assessors can review.
Teramis's tool automatically identifies CUI across file types that other solutions miss, including AutoCAD drawings, PDFs, images, and scanned documents, with up to 99.99% accuracy. It also surfaces spillage outside the boundary before it becomes a reportable incident. 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.”
The partnership addresses a critical challenge in the Defense Industrial Base (DIB): accurately defining the CUI boundary for CMMC assessments. Manual scoping processes are often time-consuming, error-prone, and difficult to defend during audits. By automating CUI discovery and continuous monitoring, the integrated solution provides contractors with verifiable evidence of their data boundaries, reducing risk and improving assessment readiness.
FutureFeed, with more than 1,400 clients and 350+ partners across the DIB, delivers tools, workflows, and accountability structures for scalable CMMC compliance. Teramis serves government agencies, defense contractors, and CMMC advisory firms. Together, they offer a comprehensive approach to CUI management that aligns with CMMC requirements.
