Forum Website - Protecting Data

Hello all...

I am developing a website using vBulletin as my forum application. I am on a shared server, as reseller of hosting services. I use Rochen in Scotland.

The Forum site will have very high ranking members and the intention is they will be writing pretty sensitive threads.

How can I ensure protection of this data? Should I use SSL, etc.?

I will go to a dedicated server once the site is active enough. But I am very concerned about how to protect posts and such. The individual forums and the site itself will be password protected, but I am thinking beyond that.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Have a nice weekend !!
