My database was stolen by my webhost's sysadmin. How can I prevent this in the future?

My webhost's system admin stole my database and put it up on a different domain name. I caught it immediately, and they fired the guy, but now I'm incredibly paranoid (even if I switch webhosts, it's still a fear now), and I'm wondering if there is any way I can do to protect my database. I was thinking about having the database seeded somehow, so if it was put up anywhere else, I'd get an email notification, or perhaps putting random comments in the database so that I could do a google search at random intervals and see if my database exists anywhere else..

Any ideas?
