ASP MVC folder hierarchy

Question

I have a pretty big ASP MVC application. Instead of having many controllers in the controller directory, I would rather create some hierarchy. So I might have something like

~\Controllers\Security\
~\Controllers\Maintenance\
~\Controllers\Reports\

I would also like to be able to do similar with submissions

~\Views\Security\Users\
~\Views\Security\Roles\
~\Views\Maintenance\Customer\
~\Views\Maintenance\Product\

Is it easy to do?
