Hi Dimitriy

Did you ever get an answer to your query regarding connection security.

I`m not only interested in this aspect, I am also interested in how to detect any unauthorized connection attempt whether through the front door or the back door.

Hey all,

We using libpq. There is only CONNECTION_BAD status which
is signaled about failed connection. Nevertheless, is there way
to check validity of username / password ?
