2 min readAn original planning guide. Use the linked primary documentation for platform details and the supported procedure for your environment.
List service boundaries
Include hosting, registrar, DNS, CMS, email, analytics, source control, payment integrations, and backup storage where they apply.
Identify access holders
Record named people, service accounts, roles, and the accountable owner. Keep credentials in an appropriate system rather than this inventory.
Review unnecessary reach
Compare privileges with actual tasks. Flag shared logins, former contributors, and integrations without a known purpose for controlled review.
Verify recovery ownership
Confirm that appropriate owners can recover access and approve changes. Record a supported escalation route for each critical service.
Worked scenario
See the plan in practice.
A former designer no longer edits pages but still controls the registrar recovery address. The inventory makes that dependency visible.
