I wouldn't think there would be proprietary technologies when you're
dealing with 2 standards.  Now, some manufacturers will overlay an
authentication or encryption scheme over the top of wifi/wifmax or they
may take the standard and "tweak" it slightly and sell it as
proprietary.

One that comes to mind is "SecNet 11" by Harris.  They are marketing a
wireless network link that is based upon the 802.11 standard but they
moved the frequency from 2.4ghz to 8 or 9ghz and laid a proprietary
encryption scheme at layer3/4.  I don't know of anyone who's purchased
it yet but the goal is to allow for classifed data transfer over
short-haul wireless links. i.e. hangar to mobile asset, or sometimes
close-range clustered mobile assets.
