Laravel - how to protect /public/files/uploads/ from web acces by customers

I've got a question. the admin and employee can upload stuff into /public/files/uploads/ and the customers are only allowed to see a part of the files in uploads. but when I login as customer and visit: /public/files/uploads/ I can open and view every file.

I would like to know how to protect this from customers, like when they try to open /public/files/uploads/ they redirect back to the home view.

This would need some sort of .htaccess but I can't seem to figure out how to get it working.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Try to put an empty index.html file in this folder.

Also, are your normal URLs contain public? If so, you have wrong web server configuration and you should point your web server (Apache, Nginx) to a public directory instead of Laravel project's root folder.
