user table

I am new to the database. I have a user table.
Currently, when I open this table thru Enterprise, I can see all
passwords and usernames.
Is there anyway I can make this table more secure?
Any tips for handling user table will help.

Deny users SELECT permissions on the table. Access it through a stored
procedure. Don't store passwords in the table at all - generate a secure
hash of the password in your application and store that in the database
instead.
