What is a best practice for admin accounts on the Google Admin console?
The principle of least privilege dictates that users should only have the minimum access necessary to perform their job functions. This applies to super admins as well. Using a separate user account for daily activities reduces the risk of accidental misconfiguration or unauthorized changes due to the elevated privileges associated with the super admin role.
Security:By using a separate account,super admins limit the potential attack surface in case their regular account is compromised.
Accountability:It's easier to track actions and changes when different accounts are used for different purposes.
Recovery:If the super admin account is locked or disabled,having a separate account allows for easier recovery.
