    HI,

    I am planing to create a new website by using a 3rd party PHP script which uses mysql database. I am using a shared hosting. The 3rd party php script provider said the code will be encripted and all data is secure. I am concerned about my users account info like email and other contact info and i want to make sure it is secure.

    How can Secure these details from being pulled our from my website by hackers or some malicious programs/background processes or in any other way. Is there any tool/ways which keeps track of data that goes in and out of database and where we can restrict this.

    I heard about SSL but i think it only encripts data transferr. Please let me know if SSL can solve my concern.

    To be more clear How to restrict data transferr from my site. I mean how do i restrict outgoing data from my website thats stored in mysql database?

    Any help would be great in this regard.

    Thanks,
