All of the ZigBee chip radios that I've looked at have the encryption
AES-128 built in, and it is good. But the standard key management is not
good. Maybe they will fix it in ZigBee 1.3

As is the Ember 260. Quad 48, under an inch on the side.

However, with a TS-7xxx, you could use the SPI on any of the ZigBee
products to handle the IO, and the TS-7xxx has far more CPU power than
is needed.
