The server's pretty tight, actually. We keep all security patches up to date and no passwords get in or out unencrypted (even our web-based email is encrypted, just for extra safety). He would have quite a time of it.

Even if someone did manage, the backups are good and the server is only 35 minutes from my house at a colo facility that I have access to 24 hours a day. I'd be back up and running with everything in no time.

I know better than most how to break into servers, and ours is pretty well secured.

(In other words, I'm about as worried he'll 'hack' my website as I am scared that I'll be crushed to death by a donkey falling from a cargo plane overhead. It's not even on the radar.)
