Safe Place to Store Digital Files for Sale

[Hawker]

VM3's 'Media Files' is, I have read, the place to store media files for sale.

Is this a safe place to put them? I understand that to negate otherwise public access, such files have to be stored 'above' the public html folder.

Is there a standard, secure practice here to follow?

Thanks in advance!

You should use a folder in your 'Safe Path' for that. But probably you will need an extra plugin like this one for managing your sale of virtual files: https://extensions.virtuemart.net/checkout/shipments/shipment-for-virtual-products-detail
