Hey sir. i cant run my database when i apply the string protection

hey sir. i cant run my database when i apply the string protection, im using a pdo method in mysql. and here’s my sample code for it.

(in PHP SETTINGS )
str1 = “mypass”;

(in DATAb.php )

 $pass = exo_get_protstring('str1');
 
 $rt2 = echo ("my password is : pass");

  const PARAM_db_pass = $rt2;   //====> Using PDO method

i dont know if the pdo is already secure due to the use of “const” word. but i just want to be more secure so i use string protection. . please help.

and also? what is your concerns about advance hacker sir? do you mean they see the actual code on the script?

You made an error, try:
$rt2 = echo (“my password is : $pass”);
