The problem
Department folders often grow without a clear permission model.
Recommended approach
Use groups such as Accounts-ReadWrite and HR-ReadWrite, keep permissions documented and review access when employees change roles.
Step-by-step checklist
- Create department security groups.
- Assign NTFS and share permissions to groups.
- Avoid broad Everyone-Write access.
- Test each role with a normal account.
- Review access during staff changes.
