Depending on how your asterisk server is setup to run, if you chmod 
/etc/asterisk as 750 and the files underneath as 640, then only the user 
and group owner can read (+ only owner user can write). Others will not 
even see the existence of the directory or files...

My server runs as user asterisk and group asterisk.
