Cybercom determines what software is permitted to run on DOD systems. Since Signal is not secure, the ACAS scans would pick it up and Cybercom would order it removed. If Signal is permitted to run on DOD systems, about anything is permitted to run.

I have no doubt that's why Trump fired the head of Cybercom, - so he can hire someone who will allow Signal on all the systems.
