STANAG 4406 is the NATO standard for
Military Messaging based on X.400. STANAG 4406 Military Messaging is
used for Formal Military Messaging, and defines a number of functional
and security features to support formal military messaging. It is often
used for informal Military Messaging, particularly for High Grade
messaging, where features of X.400 to support high reliability are of
particular importance.
Used for both Strategic and Tactical messaging, STANAG 4406 has a number
of special protocols to support tactical messaging, in particular to
support very low bandwidth links such as HF radio (STANAG 4406 Annex E)
and to support receivers in EMCON ("Emission Control") mode who can
receive but not send data.

infrastructure. Key advantages provided by the Isode solution are:
