CUI Protection & Enclave Setup
Isolate and protect your most sensitive data
Contact Us
Overview
Controlled Unclassified Information demands a level of protection that goes far beyond standard IT security. PCShards designs and implements CUI protection enclaves — isolated environments with strict access controls, encryption, and monitoring — that minimize your compliance boundary while maximizing the protection of your most sensitive data.
Many defense contractors struggle with CUI scope creep, where sensitive data spreads across systems and drives up compliance costs. Our approach starts with rigorous data flow analysis to identify exactly where CUI lives, then architects a tightly defined enclave that keeps CUI contained within a manageable boundary.
We deploy solutions like PreVeil encrypted email and file sharing alongside network segmentation, endpoint controls, and access management to create CUI environments that satisfy NIST 800-171 and CMMC requirements without disrupting your team's ability to do their work.
What's Included
Everything you need, nothing you don't.
CUI Data Flow Analysis
Comprehensive mapping of how CUI enters, moves through, is processed, stored, and exits your organization — the foundation of effective boundary scoping.
Enclave Architecture
Design and implementation of isolated CUI environments using network segmentation, dedicated systems, and strict access controls to minimize your compliance boundary.
PreVeil Deployment
End-to-end encrypted email and file sharing through PreVeil, providing a compliant CUI communication channel that is easy for your team to use.
Access Control Implementation
Role-based access controls, multi-factor authentication, and least-privilege policies that ensure only authorized personnel can access CUI.
Monitoring & Audit Logging
Continuous monitoring of CUI enclave activity with comprehensive audit logging that provides the evidence trail assessors expect to see.
Who It's For
Defense contractors that handle CUI and need to establish a well-defined, cost-effective compliance boundary with proper protections in place.
Our Approach
A proven methodology tailored to your needs.
Data Flow Mapping
We trace every path CUI takes through your organization — contracts, emails, files, applications, and systems — to build a complete picture of your data landscape.
Boundary Definition
We define the smallest viable compliance boundary that contains all CUI processing, storage, and transmission while keeping non-CUI systems out of scope.
Enclave Implementation
We deploy the technical controls — network segmentation, PreVeil, access controls, encryption, and monitoring — that create and protect your CUI enclave.
Validation & Documentation
We validate that all CUI is properly contained within the enclave, document the architecture for your SSP, and train your team on enclave procedures.
