Tell them you provide best effort security to secure YOUR service but
you provide the same security as the cable/telcos do to end users. NONE.
Banks and Law Enforcement need to have their own IT staff create a VPN
to secure their data regardless of the communications service they
use... even if it not you!
Ask your insurance company if they will cover you and your *complete
guarantee* of the security of private financial documents or crime
victim data.

Hey guys,
We're working with some local banks and law enforcement agencies to
provide internet service to them and understandably, they're asking
about security and if our fixed wireless service is secure enough for
their service.
I usually respond saying we use hardware encryption (WPA2-AES) on all
our links but that their data also runs over SSL or some type of
encrypted tunnel between their devices and their servers. The bank for
example is moving from hosting on-site and going to the cloud so
they'll no longer store any user data at their branch but someone else
hosts it. I'm sure they have an encrypted tunnel of some sort to
protect their data so the medium whether fiber or wireless really
shouldn't matter.
Has anyone dealt with banks or law enforcement agencies on the
"Wireless" security issue and have any resources to provide them with
a satisfactory answer?
Thank you
