Individual is easier unless you expect to need to extend access to
others.

chown -R username target

If you need to change access permissions also, the symbolic
modes are easier to remember. For example:
chmod u+rw ... add read and write access for user (owner)
chmod o+r ... add read access for other (everyone)
chmod o-w ... remove write access for other.
