title: How to secure connection string in vb.net 2008?
body: <p>I am developing an application connected to a database, I'm using visual studio 2008 (visual basic) for my front end and mysql for my back-end. When creating a connection string, vb.net prompts me with a warning saying that the connection string that I am creating contains a sensitive data and it would be too risky to include that data in the connection string... I could just ignore it's warning and my application would work fine but I'm concerned about the security of my data, can someone help me pls?... </p>
  
  <p>I already read some in the internet about securing connection strings but I can't seem to grasp the idea on to implement it and not sure if it really is the solution I am looking for...</p>
