Onboarding Security

The security practices involved in setting up a new employee's access: provisioning accounts, assigning roles, and ensuring credentials follow least-privilege principles.

Onboarding security encompasses the procedures for granting a new employee appropriate access to company systems while maintaining security. This includes identity verification, account provisioning, role assignment, MFA setup, security training, and distributing credentials through secure channels.

A secure onboarding process follows the principle of least privilege: new employees receive only the access they need for their role, nothing more. Credentials should be distributed through a password manager, not via email or sticky notes.

TeamPassword simplifies onboarding by allowing administrators to add new members to specific groups, instantly granting them access to the shared credentials they need while maintaining complete audit trails of who accessed what.
