Safer account access
Manage user access around real responsibilities
Give people the access they need, protect account credentials, and review permissions as teams and duties change.
- Least-privilege access
- Individual accountability
- Regular access reviews
Avoid sharing one powerful login
Hosting accounts can expose servers, domains, invoices, customer data, and destructive actions. Shared credentials make it difficult to know who changed what and harder to remove one person safely. Where individual or delegated access is supported, assign it according to responsibilities and keep ownership with a controlled business account.
HostGanga account and service-level permission options depend on the current portal and product integration. Sign in to review available controls. Roles, invitations, activity records, and additional authentication methods should be confirmed before relying on them for a formal access policy.
Role mapping
List who needs billing, domain, technical, or administrative duties and avoid granting unrelated access for convenience.
Credential protection
Use unique passwords, a reputable password manager, and additional sign-in protection whenever the current account flow supports it.
Lifecycle reviews
Remove access promptly after role changes and review users periodically, including agencies and temporary contractors.
Create an access inventory
Record account owners, recovery contacts, delegated users, API or integration credentials, SSH keys, control-panel accounts, and domain registrar access. Store recovery information securely and ensure more than one authorised business representative understands the process.
- Named owners and recovery contacts
- Service and server credentials inventory
- Scheduled review and offboarding steps
Protect high-impact changes
Use internal approval for domain transfers, DNS changes, server deletion, rebuilds, and payment updates. Verify the target resource and preserve backups before destructive work. If compromise is suspected, change credentials, revoke active access where possible, inspect services, and contact HostGanga promptly.
Roles, invitations, activity history, authentication options, and service controls vary by account and product.
Frequently asked questions
Can I add multiple users to my account?
The available user and role controls depend on the current portal and product. Sign in to inspect your account or contact HostGanga for confirmation.
Should developers receive the main account password?
Avoid it where delegated or service-specific access is possible. Provide only what the task needs and revoke temporary access after completion.
What should I do when a team member leaves?
Remove their account and keys, rotate credentials they knew, review recent high-impact changes, and update recovery contacts and internal documentation.
