Access and permissions
SIDENOTE / WORKING DESK
Useful access.
Clearly agreed.
Do not send passwords, security codes, private inbox contents or confidential records through a general website enquiry.
NOTE 01
Define the task first
The actual work and responsibilities determine which access, if any, is necessary.
NOTE 02
Agree permissions separately
The account owner authorizes appropriate limited access through the actual service’s intended process. A general enquiry grants no access.
NOTE 03
Use the right channel
The operating business explains its appropriate private handling and credential process. Never put secrets in this preview form.
NOTE 04
Review at handover
Agree how access is reviewed or removed and how working records are returned or retained at the end of the engagement.
NEXT NOTE / A USEFUL START
The useful work.
A defined place.
Tell the desk about the general tasks, deadlines and approvals you want to discuss. Passwords and confidential records belong in a separately agreed appropriate channel.
