Oh.
When I saw the title, I thought they would start to use GnuPG or PEP or maybe switching from SMTP and MIME to something else.
And then it seems that they're still where the rest of the world was a almost decade ago, and starting implementing TLS.
- yebyen 9y agoYeah, I read the title and assumed basically opposite, that this meant soldiers were going to start visiting one of those ridiculous "Secure E-mail Portals" to find out about upcoming deployments, or whatever else the DOD needs to tell them about via e-mail. I'm a bit surprised they can even get their email delivered today without having implemented TLS.
- willstrafach 9y agoI'm curious what GnuPG would offer beyond what they can already do using S/MIME via CAC?
- drdaeman 9y agoNot much. But, possibly, Ed25519? But, yeah, I just forgot about S/MIME while I was writing that comment. It's probably a better fit, especially in terms of revocation (OCSP, etc).
