Safest way to access the mssql server ovet the internet

Hello All,

What should be the safest way to have a client application which has to
connect to a remote MSSQLServer. I think just open port 1433 is not a very
safe way?
Since I'm not a network expert, but a delphi programmer, maybe somebody can
shed a light on this topic.

Regards,
Peter
