Testimonials
BYOD with Hypori has been fantastic. I serve as an exchange officer in Italy and accessing NIPR products can be a nightmare. Even with my government-issued laptop, I run into daily issues where my local ISPs block the VPN.”
It’s easy to forget your work phone - carrying two phones is the old way. Giving access is better for the organization and improves morale.”
This is the answer we have been looking for – access to CUI on personal devices, removes the need for having two phones.”

Army BYOD Frequently asked questions
Got more questions? We've got answers. Browse the complete list of DOD FAQs.
Who is eligible to participate?
The BYOD program is open to all “@army.mil” users, to include military (Active, Guard, Reserve), Civilian, and Contractor personnel. Note: If you are an Army service member assigned to a joint command (i.e., USSOCOM and others), you must register with your “@army.mil” address, as the BYOD service is currently only configured for select DOD365 tenants.
How do I access CAC-enabled websites within my Hypori virtual workspace?
Hypori uses Chrome as the standard web browser which can access both NIPRNet and Internet websites using the standard NIPRNet-based rules and filters. Your account has preconfigured government bookmarks for common-use websites including IPPS-A, MilConnect, EES, Defense Travel System, GKO, and Outlook Web Access (OWA). When prompted for CAC credentials, the user will login by selecting their Purebred PIV Auth Certificate.
Can I send/receive and digitally sign emails using Hypori?
Yes. This is a very important feature of the Hypori solution. When configuring email using Outlook (https://armyeitaas.sharepoint-mil.us/sites/hypori/SitePages/User-Guides.aspx), the user will identify their Purebred (DoD PKI) credentials for their digital signature and sending/receiving encrypted emails. (Use NIPRNet or AVD to access the Hypori Hub to access the user guide.)
Can I digitally sign documents using Hypori?
Yes, each user’s virtual workspace has the MDS App which allows them to digitally sign forms using their Purebred (DOD PKI) credentials.
I’m concerned about my privacy. Does the Army have access to my personal data and activities (i.e., browsing history, apps, downloads, photos, videos, texts, contacts, calls)?
The Army NEVER has access to the user’s physical device. The Army does not want access to the user’s physical device. Unlike MDM/MAM/UEM software, Hypori does not have the ability to view or access the user’s personal information on the physical device – nor does the Army.
Why am I required to complete Purebred Registration?
Simply put, your mobile device does not have a CAC reader and many of the Army’s services require a CAC for access. Purebred registration associates your digital CAC credentials with your Hypori virtual workspace thus allowing you to access NIPRNet-hosted websites, CAC-enabled websites, Army365 Email, Teams, and more!
I just got a new mobile device; how do I transition my Hypori app to that device?
Please contact the Army Enterprise Service Desk - Worldwide (AESD-W) at 866-335-ARMY or submit a BYOD (Hypori) ticket via the AESD-W Portal (https://www.aesmp.army.mil) to request new Army MobileConnect and Hypori QR Codes for your new mobile device. To set up Hypori on your new device, download the Hypori and MobileConnect apps on your new phone and scan the new QR codes, just like you did during your initial device setup. You will connect to your existing virtual workspace and no other configuration is required. Purebred and Email are already configured.
Can I use my Army BYOD OCONUS?
Yes, you can use your Army BYOD Hypori application OCONUS. Since there is no DOD data ever stored on your device, it meets the requirements for OCONUS usage. Currently, Army BYOD has a worldwide user base with support for Army personnel permanently stationed overseas.
Do you have any helpful “How to” videos?
Yes! We created a playlist of videos that will help you personalize and navigate your Hypori device – such as changing display size, organizing folders, and creating app shortcuts!
Who do I contact for support?
Requests for technical support with the BYOD/Hypori application can be directed to the Army Enterprise Service Desk - Worldwide (AESD-W) at 866-335-ARMY or submit a BYOD (Hypori) ticket via the AESD-W Portal.
