We provide a modern, cost-effective, and compliant PaaS for government agencies to send programmatic emails and messages. Head over to the email API guide to find out more.
Emails, SMSes and Telegram messages are not 100% secure. Users should be wary of putting sensitive information directly in your message body. Depending on the level of sensitivity, users can consider using recipient-specific, high-entropy links or requiring further authentication to see sensitive information.
The Postman web app can be accessed on GSIBs that allows Secure Internet Surfing.
We use cloud infrastructure so we can handle up to Confidential (Cloud-Eligible) data. For more information, you may refer to the section of our guide on IM8 Policies (
