Guidance from CISA (an agency within the Department of Homeland Security) does not translate to an Approval for DOD.

The DOD memo does not supersede other DOD instructions referenced by the memo requiring RMF and NIAP things.

We're saying the same thing, It's "use Signal for everything you'd use Whatsapp or SMS for, and use the standard secure channels for anything you'd typically need a secure channel for."
