How to hide folders

hello everybody,


i would like to hide visibility of the folders , i.e. not to giving any physically visibility to any users . Is there any way to do it other than changing the permission and adding "." post folder name .

by changing the permission , we cann't do any activity , but have visibility . Again by adding "." , it's not able to view in my server , but if i am using any 3rd party UI , then able see there is a folder with "." but in grey shaded.

so is there any option in unix, to hide visibility of the folders from any user?????
