# Team Sharing Passwords in a Spreadsheet or Group Chat? How to Fix It

Move shared logins into a business password manager with shared vaults, change the passwords that were widely shared and turn on two-step login. Then delete the spreadsheet, so access is controlled per person and revoked in one click when someone leaves.

- **Starting price:** From $200

- **Where:** Remote, anywhere in the U.S.

- **Quote:** Fixed price before work starts

## Try this first

- Choose a business password manager
- Create shared vaults by team or role
- Move the passwords from the spreadsheet into the vaults
- Change passwords that many people knew, especially for banking and email
- Turn on two-step login wherever it’s offered
- Delete the spreadsheet and any copies in chat or email

Common causes

- Shared logins for vendors, social media or banking
- No tool for sharing safely
- A spreadsheet that grew over years
- Former employees who still know the passwords

## When it’s more than a quick fix

If former employees knew the shared passwords, or banking and admin logins were in the sheet, change those first.

## Questions

### Are password managers safe?

Reputable business password managers encrypt your data so even the provider can’t read it, and they’re far safer than spreadsheets.

### What about accounts only one login can use?

Share them through the password manager so people never see or copy the password itself.
