DESCRIPTION

The Organizational Messaging Service provides a range of assured services to the customer community that includes the military services, DoD agencies, COCOMs, non-DoD U.S. government activities, and the IC. These services include the ability to exchange official information between military organizations and to support interoperability with Allied nations, non-DoD activities and the IC operating in both the strategic/fixed-base and the tactical/deployed environments.

FEATURES

  • Guaranteed Message Delivery—All recipients of a message either receive the message or the service returns a non-delivery notification to the message originator giving the reason for each unsuccessful delivery attempt.
  • Priority Transmission—DMS servers allow users to specify the precedence of each message they originate subject to controls that limit the precedence levels at which each user is authorized to originate a message.
  • Message Confidentiality, Integrity, and Non-Repudiation—DMS guarantees this feature through NSA-approved message cryptography and link encryption with audit mechanisms that support non-repudiation.
  • Security Access Control—DMS applies these protections to messages based on the message security label and the authorizations assigned to organizations and specific users within those organizations.
  • Interoperability—This feature is supported between DoD organizations, non-DoD organization, and allied nations.
