A simple solution: configure your web server to serve files for your https:// URLs from a different point in your filesystem than your http:// files. For instance, your http files might be under /var/www/data and your https files under /var/www/data-ssl. Then neither set of files can be accessed through the other port.

Edit: On a second look, I noticed you said you're on a shared server, so maybe you can't change the web server config. In that case, the $ENV{HTTPS} or $ENV{SERVER_PORT} variables may be of use to you, at least on some servers.
