The accounts you set up for a new starter on day one tend to stick around for years. Give them their own login, not a shared one. Give access to only what their job needs. Turn on MFA from the first login. It's easy to add access later and hard to take it back.

When you log into a new tool with your Google account instead of making a fresh password, you're tying that tool to your Google login. Do it enough times and one account controls all of them.

It's quick, so most people click it without thinking.

The trouble starts if someone gets into that Google account. They get your email, and every app you logged into with it, in one go.

Google itself is a risk here too. If it ever suspends or locks your account, you can lose all those apps at once, and getting a Google account back is famously hard.

So for anything your business relies on, give it its own login and password, with two-factor turned on.

And put strong security on the Google account itself, since so much now runs through it.

SocGholish, an operation that's been delivering malware to users via fake software updates, has suffered a major blow.

Your IT person's admin account can change almost everything in your business. If they're logged into it while reading email or browsing, one bad click hands all of that over. They should use a normal account day to day and only sign into admin when they need it.

At least one of your team's work emails is probably already in a leaked password list. Go to haveibeenpwned.com and check. It's free. Anything that shows up, change that password now and anywhere else you reused it. Then ask your IT provider about dark web monitoring.
