However, the server can generally access a file anywhere in your server file system, as long as it is readable to the user account that is running the server process. If it is only the security that is your concern, you might want to find out what is your security options with your web server. Most server will allow you to set up access control to individual file(s). Some server can also setup user access control so the user have to login before accessing certain files.
