    Hello, in our application, we have to have our DB accessable over the
    internet :/ and no VPN for each of the thousands of users isn’t
    possible...

    My question are:

    -How can I secure this?
    -What would be a good IDS system that would autoblock IPs that are
    trying to bruteforce login (Since we are using SSL to encrypt our
    traffic, this throws a rinch in all IDS systems I know)
    -I have found some .sql scripts that help secure my db.. Since I will
    be working with a lot of DB servers.. what are some more .sql scripts
    that would help me secure my DBs?

    thanks for any help!
    Lee
