Sharing company files securely

[onlinesource]

I currently have two offices, one on the east coast and one in the mid west. The whole sounds a lot bigger than it is. Basically, my designer works on the east coach and creates digital material. He then sends that material to my shipper who produces it, packages it up and ships it.

The problem is, my shipper now has access to all my company files which I host on a web server. He access through through a program called Web Drive which maps the content as a letter drive.

The employee can get ahold of everything, save all of it to his PC, etc. There is zero security. I been looking at CPANEL and WebDisk settings and don't see how to stop somebody from actual computer trespass.

Can this be done? I need them to have full access to read/write files and folders but just want to make sure people aren't backing up data.

Am I screwed?

Look at password protected directories, allowed IP addresses to those directories, Named Users (and an additional password if desired), etc. Load into that password protected area ONLY the information you wish shared. Assign DIFFERENT user names for your west coast, east coast, and shipper. You can then check your logs to see what they are actually doing.

Sadly, if there was nefarious intent it is likely to have already happened, but that does not mean you don't take these steps NOW!

Most of the above is handled in .htaccess in both root and the protected directory(ies).
