FutureFeed, a leading compliance platform for NIST SP 800-171 and CMMC, announced a partnership with Teramis to integrate automated Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) discovery into FutureFeed's Cyber-GRC platform. The collaboration aims to streamline CMMC assessments by replacing manual interviews and assumptions with data-driven, continuous monitoring.
Under the agreement, Teramis' CUI discovery tool is embedded directly into the FutureFeed platform, enabling partners to offer new services and contractors to maintain a continuously monitored, evidence-based CUI boundary. The tool automatically identifies CUI across file types often missed by other solutions, including AutoCAD drawings, PDFs, images, and scanned documents, with up to 99.99% accuracy. It also surfaces CUI spillage outside the boundary before it becomes a reportable incident. Teramis 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 partnership addresses a critical challenge in the Defense Industrial Base (DIB): accurately scoping CUI for CMMC assessments. By integrating automated discovery, FutureFeed and Teramis provide a scalable solution that reduces risk and improves assessment readiness. The collaboration is particularly significant as CMMC compliance becomes mandatory for defense contractors, requiring robust evidence of CUI protection.
FutureFeed, with over 1,400 clients and 350+ partners across the DIB, delivers tools and workflows for achieving and sustaining CMMC compliance. Teramis offers fully automated CUI discovery and continuous monitoring for government agencies and defense contractors. More information is available at www.futurefeed.co and www.teramis.us.
