Ownership and Access Model

If you know SEO

Think of this like GSC/GA access, but higher risk: wrong ownership or admin access can permanently slow delivery.

Goal​

Ensure the account is owned by the right entity and roles are safe.

  • Owner/admin: 1-2 senior people only
  • Standard: day-to-day operator
  • Read-only: stakeholders

Step-by-step​

  1. Confirm the account owner email and recovery access.
  2. Enable MFA for all users.
  3. Add users with least privilege.
  4. Create a monthly access review reminder.

Common mistakes​

  • Giving too many admins.
  • Using a personal email as the only owner.

Mini-lab​

List the 5 people who need access and assign a role to each.
