YEO Messaging has announced a new partnership with ASU to deliver secure messaging solutions for government and military communications.
YEO Messaging, the British leader in AI-powered secure communications with continuous biometric authentication, has announced a new partnership with ASU to deliver secure messaging solutions for government and military communications. ASU is a UK-based consultancy providing enterprise architecture and digital transformation services to the Ministry of Defence (MOD) and other government sectors. Founded in 2012 and staffed by veterans, ASU specialises in defence, engineering, and systems architecture.

ASU’s deep roots in defence give them the trust, language, and operational fluency to deliver transformation from day one. “We’re veterans working back into defence. That gives us the trust, language, and context to drop into high-stakes programmes and deliver transformation from day one,” said Matt Stowell, Head of Business Development at ASU. That embedded experience is critical. Indeed, in global command structures, secure, real-time communication must be compliant, role-based, and fully auditable, criteria that traditional tools like WhatsApp and Signal fail to meet. “You hit send on WhatsApp, and it’s gone. You don’t control where it ends up or who sees it. That’s a risk we can’t afford,” added Andrew Preston, ASU Principal Consultant and former military comms lead.
After connecting through a mutual contact, ASU began testing YEO Messaging, a British developed secure communications platform that immediately aligned with their military mindset. Designed for environments where control, accountability, and confidentiality are mission-critical, YEO offers continuous facial recognition for identity verification, geofencing to restrict access by location, and admin-controlled permissions to prevent forwarding, screenshots, or unauthorised sharing. Rank-based access via invite-only groups ensures that communication reflects military hierarchies, while on-premise or private cloud hosting guarantees data sovereignty. “Military users naturally work in groups,” added Matt Stowell. “YEO reflects that structure — rank-based access, control from the top down, and clarity about who’s in and who’s out.”

The impact has been immediate. ASU and its partners now benefit from an elevated security posture across sensitive environments, with fast onboarding of remote teams spanning the UK, Middle East, and Africa. YEO’s platform provides a future-fit communication model that meets MOD compliance goals while modernising defence and public sector operations. “It’s easy to use, secure, and gives us total control. That’s everything a defence comms tool should be,” said Andrew Preston. As the partnership deepens, ASU sees YEO not just as a tactical tool but as a strategic fit. “YEO is more than secure chat — it’s a platform that matches how the military operates and thinks. That’s why we’re backing it,” concludes Matt Stowell.
