John: Since you host your application(s) with your ISP, don't worry about it. It's a useful and valid question, but you're not in a position to address it completely while security is in control of someone beside yourself.
Look here to make yourself better educated about MySQL security: http://www.mysql.com/doc/G/e/General_security.html Simply stated: If the host that has your data is not in a room/building that you have control over (i.e.: you have the keys), you can't have security. But, the above link will give you some logical security practices, regardless.
