i heard that access password can break with some recover tools...and that to i have to specify access password in connection string will that be secured...?

you will have to provide tha password in your connectionstring. But you can encrypt that part of your web.config file. (see article from scott guthrie: http://weblogs.asp.net/scottgu/archive/2006/01/09/434893.aspx)

Solution 2

Password protect access database[^]
You then provide the password as part of your connection string.
