I did a quick scan of the available forum mods and didn't see anything that would directly relate to this issue...

I have a category of forums that only a private group can access. I would like to allow them to upload files within these forums but I can't guarantee the security of these files. All anyone would need to access the file is the url, which would be possible to guess I suppose.

Does anyone have some suggestions on how I could implement some sort of security to file uploads through the forum? Or possibly an alternative file access solution that could still use the logon credentials from the forum?
