Storage Link

I have some sensitive document stored in the storage folder, but because of laravel nova, i need to create a storage link to the public folder in order to be able to download them.

Are the files still secure if I do

php artisan storage:link

Or once I do this anybody can access them?

Anyone can access them if they are inside /storage/app/public
