You can secure your SQL communications using SQL encryption or pass it all
through a VPN; either way will incur traffic overhead.
Bear in mind that there are folks out there scanning for SQL servers (you'll
see inbound destination port TCP-1433 in your ISA logs).

If I allow an outbound SQL Server connection to a specific trusted
external address what possible security risks does this pose?

Could someone please outline some no matter how paranoid.

Being a security novice I often wonder about this (SQL being just an
example) and would like some clarification.

Thanks
Jon
