How to Review Shared Administrator Accounts Without Locking Out Operations

Shared administrator accounts make it harder to attribute actions, but removing access without planning can interrupt maintenance or recovery work.

What to check

Inventory where shared credentials are used, identify service dependencies and emergency procedures, and confirm named administrators can access systems before changes. Do not expose passwords in the inventory.

Recommended next step

Move people to named accounts with appropriate roles, secure any necessary emergency credential, and verify audit logging. Informatix Systems can review identity and endpoint access controls.
