There is an open source product called ZeBeDee that I just started
using. It seems to work well. It creates a TCP/IP "tunnel" from your
client to your server. You can encrypt and compress the data stream.
Info about this is on the IB Phoenix site. I'm using this with FB and
other db's.

If you are using Delphi, you can use a multi tier appropach with
Midas/Datasnap and roll your own encryption & compression. Also,
Asta's multi tier components do this well. I believe there are others,
RemObjects?
