Limit connection from trusted host will reduce it. And its better handled by

If just view people can access MySQL in port 3306 you can set in firewall to
not accessible from all host except the host which you list.
If very wide people need the MySQL, like in hosting provider, I think you
can use application which make people can manage MySQL via server such as
PHPMyAdmin,
I don't think there's anything specific to MySQL but for any system you
should ensure you have a good well configured firewall set up, make sure
antivirus software is installed and kept up to date, ensure programs only
run with essential permissions and keep your system up to date with all the
late
