You’re asking a really broad question and there is no one “Right” answer. Your security set up is going to be dictated by your Business Rules and Policies. Your first step is to figure out what those are and then try to implement them with as much Best Practice strategy as you can. Search the forum and Google. You’ll find tons of information and suggestions for Best Practices to follow for security. Here’s a good place to start:

P.S. As far as the Everyone group goes, my advice is to give Everyone “Not Specified” for as much as possible. There will be places that it makes sense to give Everyone rights, but most likely it will simply be View rights.
