      Although it is possible (if your firewall allows it) I wouldn't really recommend it. You can, of course, connect via a VPN which would make it appear as if it is on a local network. VPN software will encrypt the data for you. If the communication is at an application level I would suggest looking into creating a web service to communicate with the database. This uses HTTP (so you can use HTTPS) and also it means that you define exactly the type of queries that can be run by virtue of the web methods that you expose.
