Neither would be a good thing to use if your data is important to you
and you care about security. As pointed out by my brother, Access has
serious issues. M$ SQL has several security holes (big ones) especially
when it's used in a web environment and over a network.

Ask the Russians about how many nukes they lost track of thanks to SQL.

Use a Linux DB engine, or if you MUST use Windows (why?), use anything
other than SQL and Oracle. (Yes, Oracle has serious issues as well.)
