security on website?? [modified]

i wonder is it more safe to have own server for the company site or is it the same as we rent the server from other company??? i thinking to have a strong security on my site to avoid ppl hack in.. i only know the password is the more basic security or some.. firewall hardware like router. any other suggestion? on the software and hardware...?? the hardware i might use the IBM brand... is it ok if u use access for my databse?? but i sound like.. not secure.. compare to MYSQL or oracle...wat u guys think?

It sounds like a hosted solution might be better for you as they would handle all of the security and maintenance of the boxes for you. They will also handle the bandwidth and support the firewall or other barriers. The caveat will always be your code though. If your code is not secure and your connection strings to your database are compromised then you will have a problem. MySQL is pretty easy to use and is inexpensive compared to Oracle or DB2. It really depends on the language(s) or OS that you are using for what database would be easier to use. IE: PHP likes MySQL, .NET languages like Microsoft SQL Server, etc. Dirk Watkins
