Directory listing is a setting in a web server that determines whether the server will return a list of the files in a directory when someone visits that directory. The directory listing setting is usually turned off for security reasons since it can allow people to see the contents of unprotected directories on the server. Viewing files in the directory can lead to information disclosure, which is the unauthorized release of sensitive information. Turning off directory listing helps to protect against this type of attack. It is important to note that disabling directory listing does not make a directory inaccessible. It simply prevents the contents of the directory from being displayed when someone visits it. If you want to prevent people from accessing a directory, you need to protect it with a password or some other form of authentication.
