Video Tutorials on my site - do I need to place the videos in a secure directory?

[katman1971]

Hi

 

I will be offering video tutorials to paid members only. I created a restricted area by using this rule:

if ( tep_session_is_registered('customer_id') && $account['customers_group_id'] == 1 ) {

 

The videos will be streamed and will sit on my server. My question: do I need to secure the folder that the videos sit in? If I do need to secure the folder, how would I do that? Or do I simply place the videos into a normal folder and expect the "if ( tep_session_is_registered" rule to be sufficient security?

 

Thanks.
