It seems like it shouldn't be too complicated, but I'm not sure the best way to do this.

Hello..

I added a temp employee to our active directory.  We want to allow this user to access only a single folder on the public drive.  All other users access public by way of "domain users" permission being permitted to access the mapped drive.  This new user should only be able to access a single folder inside the public drive and be denied access to any other folders.  What's the best way to do this, especially if that folder is a couple levels deep in the directory structure?  Will I have to redo the permissions on all other files?

It seems like it shouldn't be too complicated, but I'm not sure the best way to do this.

Security is the protection of information systems from theft or damage to the hardware, the software, and the information on them, as well as from disruption or misdirection of the services they provide. The main goal of security is protecting assets, and an asset is anything of value and worthy of protection.  Information Security is a discipline of protecting information assets from threats through safeguards to achieve the objectives of confidentiality, integrity, and availability or CIA for short. On the other hand, disclosure, alteration, and disruption (DAD) compromise the security objectives.
