Keep your forum always up do date, make sure that the third party mods and/or styles you install don''t have security issues, make frequent backups of your db, change your passwords on a frequent basis and make them strong and hard to guess etc.

Yes thank you

But how secure my AdminCP category, and part (include), or it is information for my database

As borbole said strong passwords
make sure include is not 777 etc..

For the Acp, you can rename its folder to something else you want and then update the new name at the config.php file.

$config['Misc']['admincpdir'] = 'newacpfoldername';

And replace newacpfoldername with the actual new name of the acp. You can do the same for the modcp folder too.
