secure Oracle connection from java applet

I've written a java applet that connects to Oracle on a hosted server. I have been testing it by connecting by VPN to my hosting service and connecting to the Oracle database. I've done this so I don't have to expose the Oracle db to outside connections, but now I need to be able to connect to Oracle without being on the VPN. Is there any way to set up a security certificate or something so that Oracle only accepts an outside connection from my java applet?

Assuming that Applets can use JDBC, Oracle has written a whitepaper titled SSL with Oracle JDBC Thin Driver (PDF). I haven't looked it over, but I imagine it has instructions on configuring both Oracle and the Oracle JDBC drivers for SSL.
