The stuff private contractors write is typically complete crap with respect to security. There was never a leak where some proprietary communication software was leaked and all security researchers were stunned about how well though through everything was.
But the opposite happens all the time that some government funded closed source military software gets leaked and everybody start’s laughing about how poorly that crap was implemented.
The surface of vulnerability of public apps includes the play store and Apple’s app store both who are treating the software they distribute at far lower level of sensitivity. Governments don’t publish encryptions they can break nor the ones they know adversaries can break. Even if the content of messages are secure, the timing and identity of people communicating can be compromised. There’s many fundamental reasons signal should never be used for military communications.
