Besides the already mentioned SSL session, consider tunneling postgres
over SSH. For example, I can be anywhere with my laptop and thanks to my
local postgres port being forward over SSH to my database server, I can
issue commands locally as if I were on the server itself. All in a very
secure and relatively fast fashion. (data in the SSH tunnel is gzipped
and encrypted)

Frank
