Provide at least an security transport layer like IPSec for it.
Flightbooking systems basing on MQS are doing that also.
Some other for Insurance issues will get that too, including a plain
password (yes: ARGH) within the database-packets for "authentication".
MQS was not build to be secure and it seems it wont be in near future,
so secure the transport between MQS server and clients.
Of course this is not against the misuse "behind" the tunnel-end, but
it's always difficult to kill any scenario against a misusing authorative
person.
