Using a robust encryption mechanism with designated access levels is the safer approach. Transferring sensitive files through an encrypted channel ensures data remains unreadable to unauthorized entities. Restricting privileges limits the scope of who can view the data. A password-protected archive alone can be brute-forced and distributed beyond the intended audience. Public or lightly restricted channels risk accidental exposure due to insufficient safeguards.
