We are making a windows desktop application using Java FX. We will be storing the data in a local MySQL server (on the same computer). We want to ensure, the user can edit/create data only with our application. And cannot damage or modify the information on their own.

Any possible solution to achieve this?

Make sure only your application know the MySQL password. But you're going to have trouble with administration, backup, etc. – user207421 Oct 03 '14 at 23:32
@EJP I was wondering, someone could brute-force or do something else, and get the Root password for MySQL. Any suggestion regarding that? – theuniverse Oct 04 '14 at 05:16
@EJP Is embedded MySQL any good for this? – theuniverse Oct 04 '14 at 05:16
