SMB 3 offers an option to enable encryption. Does that mean it would be a possible option to let people use SMB over the internet or are there other not securable aspects about SMB left? What extra security measures should I have to take to make that secure enough?
I know there a VPN solutions to offer SMB, but I'd like to find a way to offer a network-share without the need for SSL-VPN.

SMB 3 is a pretty new protocol. I'd be hard-pressed to recommend running it "naked" over the Internet until it has had a few more years of attackers and security researchers banging on it.
