if i want someone to access a folder, they have to have both sharing and security. so why is there not just sharing, or just security, or am i missing something?

On a basic level, security provides file and folder level access to accounts located on a specific device when logged on to that same device. Sharing allows them to access those same folders and files form other devices, while not locally logged on to the device with the shared items.
