This approach is most valuable for professionals who handle sensitive client data — lawyers, therapists, financial advisors, management consultants, healthcare professionals.

But the threshold for technical skill is not high. Most non-developers with basic comfort with software installation and configuration can set this up. It is not "developer only."
