 > Thank you for your suggestion regarding improving WordPress security.
 Adding .htaccess files to key folders is indeed a great practice to
 enhance security, especially for servers where modifying Apache
 configuration files is restricted. By preventing script uploads,
 execution, and directory listings, such measures help mitigate potential
 vulnerabilities.

 Using .htaccess files to prevent unwanted script uploads, executions, and
 directory access is a great idea, especially when hosting providers don’t
 allow Apache configurations to be modified. I’ll definitely check out the
 files you’ve shared. It’s always great to see practical solutions like
 this being shared—it could be super helpful for a lot of WordPress users.
