Question:

You are installing Windows 11 Pro on a computer that will store shared data for many users. How will you ensure this group's security?

A Use the Local Users and Groups app to create groups such as Accounting, Office, and so on. Then set up permissions for each group on shared files. Add and remove users to the group as needed.
explanation

A best practice is to create groups using the Local Users and Groups app, provide each group permissions to shared files, and then add users as needed. When someone changes jobs, leaves or joins the company, all you have to do is to remove the user from the group and/or add them to the group with the security access they need. Because security settings are made for the group as a whole rather than for each individual user, this process reduces the chance of human error. Pro or better versions of modern Windows operating systems include Local Users and Groups.
