To be honest, if you're really that concerned about security, you
should get yourself a dedicated server or at least a dedicated server
instance - both of those prevent snooping into your application scope.
Enterprise sandbox security helps prevent a number of vectors but if
you have a determined hacker sharing your physical server, you're
going to be at some degree of risk. You get what you pay for.
