    Some tips we have gives you to secure your data base.
    1-Password-protect the database
    Split the database

    Hide objects -- a subtle form of protection
    Use error handling to protect code

    You can store your data encrypted, and use special decoding client to get access.

    1 Donot store clear text passwords
    2 Donot have more than 1 or 2 database admin users at the max
    3 Provide remote database access only to trusted IP based client
    4 Try using shell commands to manipulate the database (if its hosted in Linux)
    5 Change passwords frequently & set a strong password everytime you do

    Hope this helps.
