Description

Teramis is a purpose-built platform designed to solve one of the most critical and often misunderstood challenges in CMMC compliance: accurately identifying and controlling Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI). Most organizations assume they know where their CUI resides, but in practice, that assumption is frequently wrong. Teramis eliminates the guesswork by scanning across enterprise environments, such as Microsoft 365, file shares, endpoints, and complex file types like PDFs, images, and CAD files, to pinpoint where CUI actually exists. Unlike generic data discovery, data loss prevention (DLP), or data security posture management (DSPM)tools, Teramis is specifically engineered for the nuances of CUI and DoD requirements, delivering far greater precision and significantly reducing false positives. Just as importantly, it produces defensible, assessment-ready evidence, allowing organizations and their partners to move from assumptions to proof.

Teramis is used across the full CMMC lifecycle. Early in an engagement, partners use it to accurately scope environments and inform enclave design based on where CUI actually resides, eliminating costly over- or under-scoping. As organizations move toward assessment, Teramis validates that CUI is properly identified and contained, reducing surprises during a C3PAO evaluation. After certification, it provides continuous monitoring to detect CUI spillage and maintain compliance over time. In higher-risk scenarios, such as incident response or potential False Claims Act exposure, Teramis enables rapid identification and quantification of CUI, giving organizations a defensible position when it matters most. For partners, this translates into more consistent delivery, fewer assessment delays, and stronger credibility with clients.

Core Capabilities:

Precision CUI Discovery (Purpose-Built, Not Generic)

Scans enterprise environments including Microsoft 365, file shares, and endpointsIdentifies CUI across structured, unstructured, and visual data (e.g., PDFs, images, scanned documents, CAD files)Goes beyond keyword/regex matching to significantly reduce false positivesDesigned specifically for CUI categories and DoD context, not generic PII or data classification

Defensible Validation Using Statistical Sampling

• Applies DoD-aligned methodologies such as ANSI/ASQ Z1.9 and MIL-STD-105E
• Validates findings with statistically sound sampling techniques
• Produces assessment-ready evidence that stands up to C3PAO scrutiny
• Shifts conversations from “potential CUI” to provable, defensible identification

Accurate CMMC Scoping and Boundary Definition

• Identifies where CUI resides, who can access it, and how it moves across systems
• Enables precise definition of the compliance boundary based on real data
• Prevents over-scoping (unnecessary cost and complexity)
• Reduces under-scoping risk that can lead to assessment failure or regulatory exposure

Continuous Monitoring for CUI Spillage and Drift

• Continuously monitors for new CUI creation and movement outside approved boundaries
• Detects policy violations and potential compliance gaps in real time
• Supports ongoing compliance and annual affirmations
• Helps organizations maintain alignment with CMMC requirements post-certification

Operates Fully Within the Customer Environment

• Deploys inside the client’s infrastructure with no external data transfer
• Eliminates concerns around data exfiltration and third-party handling
• Avoids additional compliance burdens such as FedRAMP implications
• Ensures sensitive data remains fully under customer control
