Not even close. Is this for internal (intranet) use, or Internet use?

It's for internet use; I think there is no need for very high security
protection; it not meant to protect against govermental organizations.

I doubt you can protect it from government agencies. Period.

But if it's on the Internet, and you want a secure connection, then
you will need to purchase a digital certificate authenticating your
site. Otherwise, clients connecting to a secure connection will be
warned that the site cannot be trusted.

(Unless you use a self-signed certificate, and your clients are
willing to accept the connections.)

But if this is new to you, then I suggest you hire someone who knows
what they are doing.

Securing a web site are not something for amateurs.
