1. One Stop account root user

When you create a One Stop account, an initial identity is established called the One Stop account root user. This root user has unrestricted access to all OSP services and resources within the account. It is important to note the following considerations regarding the root user:

  1. Limited Usage of Root User:

    • It is strongly recommended not to use the root user for day-to-day tasks, including administrative functions.
    • Instead, adhere to the best practice of utilizing the root user solely for creating the first user within the account.
  2. Security Precautions:

    • Once the first user is created, it is crucial to secure and store the root user credentials safely.
    • Limit the use of root user credentials to only a few necessary account and service management tasks.
  3. Best Practice:

    • Following this approach helps minimize the risk of unauthorized access and enhances the overall security posture of the One Stop account.
    • By using separate user accounts with appropriate permissions for routine tasks, you can effectively manage access and maintain better accountability within your organization.

Adhering to these guidelines ensures that the root user remains protected and reduces the chances of any potential security vulnerabilities associated with its usage.
