You can switch DirectAdmin to use SSL instead of plain text. -> https instead of http.

If you do not have your own certificates, you'll need to create your own:
#/usr/bin/openssl req -x509 -newkey rsa:1024 -keyout /usr/local/directadmin/conf/cakey.pem -out /usr/local/directadmin/conf/cacert.pem -days 9999 -nodes

#chown diradmin:diradmin /usr/local/directadmin/conf/cakey.pem
#chmod 400 /usr/local/directadmin/conf/cakey.pem

Edit the /usr/local/directadmin/conf/directadmin.conf and set SSL=1 (default is 0). This tells DA to load the certificate and key and to use an SSL connection. DirectAdmin needs to be restarted after this change.
