I need to send an onboarding spreadsheet containing PII to a vendor and want to password-protect it without blocking their ability to import data. I don't know whether to password the file, share a secure link, or send via SFTP. Compare the risks and give me the option that balances ease of use for the vendor and our security policy, plus the exact instruction I should send to the vendor for access.
