DISX SECURE COLLABORATION
High-assurance managed secure collaboration service
DISX is a high-assurance managed secure collaboration service built for organisations working with UK Defence.
Built on Microsoft 365, DISX combines secure collaboration with 24/7 managed detection and response, continuous assurance, service management and connectivity to Defence services where required.
Delivered by security-cleared personnel within a sovereign cloud environment, DISX enables teams to communicate, collaborate and manage sensitive information within a controlled operating model designed for work at the OFFICIAL-SENSITIVE classification.
At the centre of DISX Secure Collaboration is a governed working boundary. Access is restricted to authorised users. Devices must meet agreed security posture standards. Data sharing paths are controlled and auditable. Configuration change is managed and recorded. Monitoring and logging support evidential requirements.
The platform aligns with recognised defence and government security models, including CSMv4, and DCC, and supports delivery contexts requiring structured operational control. It can operate alongside existing enterprise estates as a secure collaboration enclave or serve as the primary managed collaboration environment for regulated programme delivery.
DISX Secure Collaboration is delivered as a fully managed service. Onboarding, configuration control, monitoring, patch management and governance are delivered as part of a managed service model. Structured reporting and audit-ready logging support evidential requirements throughout the lifecycle of a programme.
