## Description

This plugin helps secure uploads by preventing unauthorized users from accessing
your upload directory and stealing its content.

Works by adding a blank index.php in every directory and sub directory starting 
from the upload folder.

## Installation

    directory, or install the plugin through the WordPress plugins screen directly.
 2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ screen in WordPress
 3. Go to Settings->Upload Security screen to configure the plugin

## FAQ

  How does this work?

It adds a blank index.php file to every directory and sub directory starting from
the upload folder. So anyone accessing your upload directory will see a blank page
instead of the contents, and can’t download the files.
