Small businesses depend on dozens of online accounts. When only one person knows them, a vacation, illness or a departure can stop work.
What to list for each
- The service and what it is used for.
- The login email or username, never the password.
- Whether two-step verification is on, and which phone or app it uses.
- Who owns it and who has access.
- The renewal date and cost, if any.
Keep passwords in a password manager
The inventory says where to find each account; the password manager holds the secrets.
