Most secure way to create player stats?

You could create a folder in ServerStorage, holding all the data of each client. Let's say there's a folder in ServerStorage called 'PlayerData', when a player joins the game you can create a folder with all the client's data in 'PlayerData', and name it as the client's name. You could have stringvalues, intvalues, etc for the client's data, like: an intvalue showing the Money that client has. This makes it so that the client can't access the data as the descendants of ServerStorage can't be accessed by a client-sided(local) script.
If you'd like, you can get the client's data using a RemoteFunction.

How would I reference the folder in other scripts? game.ServerStorage.PlayersStats.player.Name?

for indexing, it is required to use square paranthesis '[]', so: game.ServerStorage.PlayerStats[player.Name]
