help with protection against sql attack

    I had a couple of emails this week from WordPress Firewall saying that it had detected and blocked a potential attack; path below with blog address removed.

    Blog_address/index.php?cat=%2527+UNION+SELECT+CONCAT(666,CHAR(58),user_pass,CHAR(58),666,CHAR(58))+FROM+wp_users+where+id=1/*

    This obviously was an attack, because I made no changes and I don’t know anyone in Belarus!

    Now, the firewall stopped this, but is there anymore security I can put in place?
    I have an htaccess file in the root of web and blog, but in my limited knowledge, is my index.php safe?
    Cheers
    John

    No one there to help with this? It is security related. Am I in the wrong section?
    Any help please.
    Thanks John
