Hi
SQL Server is more secure then Mysql. SQL server has the security of SD3 (Secure By design, Secure by development and secure by deployment). |

By well secured I mean the database had all the latest patches, remote connections were blocked via the firewall, the access passwords were changed regularly - all of which didn't matter because of a flaw in a web site script.

MySQL has one major flaw. The password for the root user is by default the same as root or Administrator on the server it was installed on. It must be changed after the install and unfortunately that does not happen often enough.
Personal opinion; I think the security provided by the OS is much more important than the DB server. If you can't get into the OS the server is a lot safer. I would like to see these servers switch to the ssh model of user keys rather than passwords for connections.
