Web Application - Secure In A Password Protected Directory?

Is a php/mysql web application secure in a password protected folder on a (reputable) hosted server?

Thanks for any insight you can provide!

Not if the person hacking you has your password.

Make sure your hosting provider is taking measures against hacking attempts, also that there are firewalls on their networks. I have read a tutorial about safe PHP Coding practices and it is awesome. Check it out:

Good Luck.
