  • Regularly review user permissions to ensure appropriate access levels
  • Remove access for users who have left your organization
  • Use the “Super Admin” role sparingly for security purposes
  • Consider using department-based permissions for more granular control
  • Review active sessions periodically to identify any suspicious login activity
