I was wondering if there is a better way to secure a website, besides setting a user session? And if so, what that way is. Thanks

Please clarify your question. It's too vague.

What is the most secure way to protect a website from malicious users. I know with sessions you can prevent users from getting to area they don't belong. Is there something one step above that? I just feel like my site can use more protection. For instance what kind of security does facebook and google have?

Different types of attacks occur from completely different vulnerabilities.

To know what exactly you are trying to protect we'd likely be able to tell you how better to do so.
