Answer 1

For the sake of completeness, the other possibility is to move such files to a directory that's not publicly available. However, some control panels used by hosting providers make this impossible. In such case, if you are using Apache you can place an .htaccess file inside the directory:

#
# Private directory
#
Order allow,deny
Deny from all
