know the account name and password, they can still get to any of the

No direct way, you'd be better off blocking (or simply removing any security
permissions) for user connections to the server running SQL Server. I agree
with the other posts, the main thing to emphasize -- use Windows
Authentication! That eliminates the need to hard code user names/passwords.
Security can be implemented and secured based on NT groups.
