We often find that when we tighten security, the system becomes too clunky. If it’s too easy, it’s not safe. How do you strike a balance?

We went through this same headache. The solution was to classify documents into categories. High-risk files go through stricter channels, while everyday stuff uses more user-friendly tools. That way, we didn’t overcomplicate processes for everyone, but still kept sensitive information locked down. I came across useful guidance on flash3c.com about balancing usability with security, and it matched what we learned by trial and error. The key is not to apply “maximum security” everywhere — it frustrates staff and backfires. Instead, customize your approach based on the type of data.
