 * Hi [@tanckom](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tanckom/),
 * I hope you are well today and thank you for your question.
 * You can achieve this by creating Download / Media Protected groups from the following
   path. By default the default protected group is created.
 * Admin area -> Membership -> Options -> Download / Media tab -> Protected groups
 * From the media library attach the files to the respective Protected groups then
   create access level and use the Downloads access level rules in it selecting 
   the protected group so that the files belonging to these groups will be secured
   for the non subscribers.
 * Create new subscription plan and use the created access level in it.
 * Now the users not subscribed to the created subscription plan won’t be able to
   access the secured files.
 * Please advise if you have more questions.
 * Cheers,
    WPMU DEV
