Canadian companies whose encryption methodologies can't be regulated by the
U.S. State Department are doing a brisk business within the U.S. and
maintaining that level of security throughout the world.
I.e. Nortel Entrust. Maybe not falling in line with Cisco, but an
alternate... Have you considered Virtual Private Networking via a firewall
system to create the distinct user groups? It's just an idea. If you're
talking individual users the cost would be way out of line.
