The new offer lets government agencies place IP-based calls across their organizations through a solution that supports “High Impact Level” standards of security and availability set by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). NIST provides standards and requirements that help protect government information, assets, and operations against man-made or natural threats, according to AT&T,
