There is no solution better than the current ones. After a company I worked with was acquired by a public company, I was given a role that included accessing to sensitive information in financial dbs. Along with that was a welcome email from the chief counsel, then every quarter came emails listing blackout dates. I nave traded in the company’s stock or options, but it would have been incredibly clear when I was prevented from doing so.

Some companies will also work with the financial group they administer their equity and ESPP through, so you literally -can't- trade on certain dates. You probably shouldn't be buying company stock outside of those anyway, given the limited trading windows, the scrutiny, and the lack of diversification.
