Tips to secure your Google account

## Secure your Google Admin account with these best practices

[#if first_name_has_content??]

Hello Ben,

[#else]

Hello customer,

[/#if]

Here are a few access control and security features we recommend to keep  
your Google Admin account secure:

[#if has_resold_subscriptions == 'True']

   -

**Manage your reseller's access to your Google account**

Your reseller has access to your Admin console  
(https://support.google.com/a/answer/12282401) by default to help you  
manage your subscription and account. Resellers can create users and  
groups, manage licenses, become a super admin, change passwords, and manage  
other critical settings of your account. Learn how to manage your  
reseller's access by clicking the link below.

   -

**Require admins and key users to provide additional proof of who they are**

We recommend that everyone in your business use 2-Step Verification (2SV),  
but it's especially important for admins and users who work with sensitive  
data such as financial records and employee information. If someone steals  
a password, 2SV can prevent them from accessing your account.

With 2SV, users need to verify their identity through something they know  
(their password) plus something they have (such as a physical key or access  
code). You should enforce 2SV for admins and key users, where possible with  
a FIDO compliant security key.

[#if has_resold_subscriptions == 'True']reseller_twosv_enabled_False_

We recommend that you also reach out to your reseller and ensure your  
reseller admins use 2SV.

   -

**Create an additional super admin account**

A business should have more than one super admin account, each managed by a  
different person. If your primary super admin account is lost or  
compromised, the backup super admin can perform critical tasks while the  
primary account is recovered. You can create another super admin by  
assigning the super admin role to another user.

Assign administrator roles to a user  
(https://support.google.com/a/answer/172176)

   -

**Super admins shouldn't remain signed in to their account**

Super admins should sign in as needed to do specific tasks and then sign  
out. Staying signed in to a super admin account when not performing  
specific administrative tasks can increase exposure to malicious activity.

Daily administrative tasks should be done using an account with limited  
admin roles.
