However, usage of umask generally is a security problem. I would at
least omit the world r.
Quite an easy and secure solution is to make a script for setting up
permissions for all the directories necessary using chmod (e.g. chmod
g+rw if you have set up group access and your files are created as
rw------- as I'd suggest).
