Webhosts have access to your files. And you should use a webhost that you trust, but there are always unethical people. How do you protect or secure your files from your webhost? Encryption?

Also what strategies can you use to detect if your
phpmyadmin mysql database
and Wordpress theme files
have been replicated elsewhere? For example can you use html or php to accomplish this ?

Hope this is the proper place to post this question.
