Startup companies making small-scale or specialist market crypto gear
such as encrypted phones, modems, cardreaders. Theres hundreds of them.

Military sales. Its a boom (sorry) market. 3CI and battlefield comms is 
	selling big isn't it?

Private Space technology 

	-error-correcting/detecting work must be close in nature and they
	have ferocious deep space needs, not to say crypto requirements
	for telemetry/guidance.

Non-illegal inter-company spying?  and counter-measures? :-)
