The problem

NAS shares are easier to manage when permissions are group-based and departments are separated.

Recommended approach

Create groups by function, assign share permissions to groups and avoid giving users more access than required.

Step-by-step checklist

  1. Define departments.
  2. Create groups.
  3. Create shares with clear names.
  4. Assign least-privilege permissions.
  5. Test with representative accounts.
