I have a draft loan agreement with embedded paystub images and a client's social security number in the header. The realtor needs to see pricing to move the deal, but I do not want sensitive data circulating. Tell me whether to password-protect this draft, redact the SSN, or remove attachments before sending. Give me the one sequence I'll follow now to minimize risk and a two-line message to the realtor explaining why the file is slightly redacted.
