To be able to check that user's email. I guess theoretically, I could give
'em each other's email password, and let them check via webmail, but that's
almost as bad as just handing them the PC login info for that user.

Why do they *have* to be able to logon as that user?

Necessary evil among customer service here. We have people out one day/week

to be able to log in as that user.  I strongly discourage anyone outside
that area from sharing their passwords, but we have no active policy
regarding it.

Good morning list..

 

I am interested in seeing any written "password sharing" policies you have
in place.  It seems ours is written in Latin, since no one seems to
understand it.  

 

I am going to draft a new policy, but would like to see how others handle
this and get opinions from the list on how "big of a deal" sharing passwords
is in other businesses.  (Personally, I think it is a BIG deal)

 

Thanks,

 

BF
