The salesmen at the company I work with at the moment (industrial/commercial IoT) have adopted "banking-grade" for laymen, and have learned to recite the algorithms and/or protocols for anyone who expresses further interest.

Stereotype incoming: This might be a cultural thing too. Military grade sounds like something that would play well to the American ear, whereas these guys are British.

When I hear some Americans about their banks, I'm not sure "banking grade" will leave a positive impression there.

Ya, if you don't have the world's largest and most well (over)funded military 10 times over, "military grade" doesn't sound quite as serious.
