UK information and cyber security consultancy Logiq Consulting, have introduced DISX Air, a new variant of their Defence Information Secure eXchange (DISX) secure communications platform.

Since its launch in 2018, the company’s secure cloud platform, DISX, has quickly established itself as a highly capable, best-in-class system that is both DEFCON 658 compliant and accredited to MoD and Other Government Department standards. Such is the impact of DISX, that it is now relied upon daily by thousands of users throughout MoD, UK Government and associated supply chain in addition to other cyber security organisations.

With the recent announcement of revisions to supply chain requirements under DEFCON 658, countless SME’s, contractors and defence primes will soon find themselves searching for a new solution to continue uninterrupted communication with the MoD and Government via the Restricted LAN Interconnect, the introduction and launch of DISX Air fills this void.

Originally developed by Logiq with a singular goal in mind – to be a like-for-like replacement for a legacy, end-of-life service enabling Official tier communications, DISX Air not only provides seamless direct connectivity into MoD Secure Services and the r.mil.uk mail domain but is also bolstered by a multitude of other communication methods and productivity tools.

While access to RLI web services, MoDCloud, DEFNet and the internet are sure to be welcome features for streamlining communication, the inclusion of major M365 web apps will allow users to work flexibly across essential programmes and platforms, encouraging collaboration, all while ensuring the highest level of security.

Answering the call in the wake of this industry shakeup, DISX Air looks set to enable contractors to quickly adapt and pivot to a new system, a system that goes beyond like-for-like by boasting familiarity and ease of use, backed by Logiq’s accredited industry expertise.
