I presume that there is an official application that has
been created by the US military / NSA / some other entity
to facilitate secure encrypted messaging for a presidential
administration?
If such a beast exists what is it called?
How does it work?
I would more expect it to be a specific combination
of hardware physically approved phones and software.
Did the prior administration use it exclusively?
I remember Obama allegedly refusing to part with
his Blackberry.
