Teramis, a platform for Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) discovery, validation, and continuous monitoring, announced that Stacy Bostjanick, former Chief of Defense Industrial Base (DIB) Cybersecurity within the Office of the Department of Defense Chief Information Officer, has joined its Advisory Board. Bostjanick brings over 30 years of federal acquisition, cybersecurity, and defense contracting experience, having played a key role in developing and implementing the Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) program across the Defense Industrial Base.
As Chief of Defense Industrial Base Cybersecurity, Bostjanick led efforts to implement CMMC across more than 220,000 companies and guided the program through federal rulemaking. Her expertise will help Teramis assist defense contractors and compliance partners in accurately identifying, validating, and continuously monitoring CUI across their environments. 'Stacy's leadership has been instrumental in advancing cybersecurity across the Defense Industrial Base and helping organizations understand and navigate CMMC requirements,' said Brandon Sessions, President of Teramis.
Teramis was purpose-built to address the challenge of knowing where CUI resides, a critical aspect of CMMC compliance. The platform enables organizations to discover CUI across Microsoft 365, file shares, endpoints, email systems, and other repositories, producing defensible evidence for scoping, enclave design, assessment preparation, and ongoing compliance. 'One of the greatest challenges organizations face is obtaining accurate visibility into where sensitive information actually exists,' said Bostjanick. 'Effective cybersecurity and compliance programs depend on sound data and informed decisions. Teramis is helping organizations replace assumptions with evidence.'
Prior to leading DIB cybersecurity, Bostjanick held senior acquisition and contracting roles, including Head of Contracting Activity for the Defense Intelligence Agency and Senior Contracting Officer for major missile defense programs. Her appointment comes as defense contractors focus on demonstrating compliance with NIST SP 800-171 and CMMC while reducing costs and assessment risk. Teramis is trusted by organizations supporting over $10 billion in defense programs, helping them accurately scope CMMC boundaries, validate compliance, manage CUI spillage, and maintain continuous awareness of sensitive data locations.
