To secure SVN you can:
a) Serve files over Apaches using WebDav and SSL/TLS or
b) Use the normal svnserve program tunnelled through SSH.
The "svnserve" daemon is just a quick way to get started. There are instructions on how to setup all of this in the Subversion book (http://svnbook.red-bean.com/nightly/en/svn.serverconfig.html) which is actually pretty well written.

Use Apache as the Subversion server using WebDAV:
http://svnbook.red-bean.com/nightly/en/svn.serverconfig.httpd.html
Then configure Apache to use ActiveDirectory as an LDAP authentication server
http://thomas-howard.com/Reference/Articles/Apache+AD/
or else authenticate using Kerberos

I've never actually tried this, so I don't know if it'll work or not, but it's somewhere to start.
As for setup described in the article, it's what we use at work. It's nice and simple, but not especially secure: you're relying on the privacy of your network to keep information safe.
