Currently, when a PHP error occurs, it will log it into a file called error_log in the same directory the error occurred in.
How can I keep the error_log files outside of the web root so that users cannot view them, for security?

Edit your php.ini file. Find the error_log setting and change it to the full path of where you want the error_log file to be written.
