How to safely save a file with a token so that no one can access it?

Question

Laravel

Hello, please tell me, you need to save the file with the token safely so that no one can download this file in any way. The filesystems config contains the following disks:

'disks' => [

        'local' => [
            'driver' => 'local',
            'root' => storage_path('app'),
        ],

        'public' => [
            'driver' => 'local',
            'root' => storage_path('app/public'),
            'visibility' => 'public',
        ],

        's3' => [
            'driver' => 's3',
            'key' => 'your-key',
            'secret' => 'your-secret',
            'region' => 'your-region',
            'bucket' => 'your-bucket',
        ],

    ],

And I'm thinking whether the file will be safely saved if it is saved to the local disk?
Laravel version 5.2

Thanks in advance for your reply

If you save the file above DOCUMENT_ROOT, and if you don't programmatically screw up by giving this file to just anyone, no one will get access to it.
