That's why I'm trying to follow up on the original question. Is there something similar the global public can use to secure their connections that is not government designed. This is even more important on microwave shots when security is desired.

Ah, thanks. That comment gave me the the search terms I needed, but I keep seeing sentences like this "Due to the encryption employed in these products, they are export controlled items and are regulated by the Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) of the U.S. Department of Commerce. They may not be exported or shipped for re-export to restricted countries..." wheee! :-)
Actually, you CAN do that, but you have to apply for ITAR exceptions. EXIM is complex and you really want a good legal team who are familiar with it hand holding you through it (and on extended retainer going forward...). Jamie
