As far as security goes, satellite is one of the most secure that exists, during
the satellite transmission portion. Of course it comes back to ground and goes out on the public internet where it is the same security as any wired connection, ranging from insecure to very secure, depending on protocol. Next generation satellite (bird launched August 14th) will allow companies to have office-to-office direct satellite without a ground component, and companies are reportedly lined up for that one purely for security reasons. Not likely to be much used that way for mobile users. That does not mean that security of WiFi is a big issue for people working with sensitive material, even though WiFi itself is the least secure carrier. Put SSL encryption on at the client computer and it remains essentially unbreakable no matter what the carrier is, all the way to the receiving https server. Corporate users are often required to use VPN tunnelling, which provides equal protection, even when using a WiFi in a coffee shop.
