It means it's a special ability. It used to cost morale, or maybe it doesn't now, maybe it will have a cooldown timer before you can use it again. I think safe communication is for reporting contacts or sending status reports without it being intercepted by the enemy.

after you click the icon, you will see another icon appear in the top right hand side of the UI meaning the special ability is active. It will have a count-down timer going too. You need to purchase the special ability with promo points before it will work.
