Shared hosting

Always avoid putting anything except the application’s public files into a document root directory, such as public_html, htdocs or similar.

When working with application configuration, never expose sensitive configuration files in public. To avoid that, place the configuration files outside the publicly accessible document root on the server, so they are not accessible over web https://example.com/config/config.yml
