You might also look into <Directory> statements in httpd.conf or conf.d files. For sensitive data it makes sense to double up the security.

There are two examples on Stack Overflow. The first is using a redirect for
.html files in the top-level only, and another matches a list of applicable

Depending on your rules, you may be able to simply rewrite them to be more
precise (for example: Redirects for an old site, etc).
