Hello,
I think that private files setting is one idea for this kind of problems, however, you know or something.
just for your information,

For years we have had /files as chmod 777 and must have apache as the group access which to my mind is dangerous. We never permit public to input images or files. Only specific people with appropriate permissions and roles can upload images and pdf documents. ckEditor and IMCE baulks if permissions and ownership are not open to everyone. Is there a way to make all the /files images and documents private, permitting only approved people input? thanks Roger
