Accessing our accounts#

To access the sites below you will need to be part of our google group and be given access to our shared last pass account. To get access please send an email to berlin@pyladies.com. ⚠️ Please be careful if you need to update a password that it is indeed saved in our shared password manager (lastpass).

Tools#

Google group#

The google group is used to be able to share files and calendar invites. To get access please send an email to berlin@pyladies.com

Lastpass#

We are currently using Lastpass premium family (due to expire in Sept 2023) this allows us to share full folders with “family members”, the number of members allowed is limited but individual passwords can be shared also. The most active members will be given access to the shared folder and other members can request for certain passwords to be shared with them.

2FA#

For some of our accounts we have 2FA set up, this offers an additional layer of security but poses a problem of shared authentication. To get around this we have set up a phone number with Telynx that can be used for 2FA and sends messages to the slack channel #2fa-open

Example 2FA Googlemail#

With Google it is likely you will first see the following screen hat is linked to a specific device:

To avoid relying on finding the person with the device to find the code we set up the joint 2FA with Telynx. To use this you will need to choose Try another way at the bottom of the screen.

Then select Get a verification code at (***)***_**17

The code will be available in the PyLadies slack in the channel #2fa-open.

Email account management#

Add a label with your name when you are responsible to follow up on an email
If you read an email but don’t intend to respond, please mark it unread so it does not get missed
