From a network point of view, the user should be logging on to a secured website using perhaps SSL. If the user is on a WiFi network, then he should also enable encryption. If there is an application that resides on the user's desktop then he should place access restrictions on the folder housing the application. He should have a firewall. And should change his password often. And should probably run a security test on to expose any Internet connection holes.
