The U.S. Agency for International Development quietly updated its policy last year to allow its employees to use third-party messaging platforms — including Signal and Telegram — for government communication in certain circumstances, a document obtained by FedScoop shows.
The agency would not provide specific reasoning behind the decision to permit the use of those messaging platforms — which have previously raised some concerns throughout Washington when used for official government business — and only said that it regularly updates technology policies to comply with the law and with changes in requirements and legislation. Unlike many federal agencies, USAID has missions across the world — and its employees often confront dangerous and difficult local dynamics abroad where the use of these platforms can be helpful.
A publicly available version of the agency’s operational policy, called the Automated Directives System (ADS), shows that the document was updated over a year ago to address third-party messaging applications. Highlighted in yellow, seemingly new language explains that employees are allowed to use personal and so-called “approved non-official” electronic messaging systems if they’re communicating with partners who won’t use other platforms. Employees are also allowed to use these platforms if engagement is “greatly enhanced” by using them, such as communicating during emergencies or coordinating logistics
