Yep - even with 2FA off they still like to check. I have a client who tries to share one Google / Gmail Inbox account between users internationally and Google

I have a client who tries to share one Google / Gmail Inbox account between users internationally and Google does not like that at all!
Google constantly requires verification for logins!
- a_dabbler 3y agoSounds like they should be doing automatic email forwarding or something instead
- jalk 3y agoThat only works for reading emails, not sending/replying using the shared account.
- toomuchtodo 3y agoWhat happens if passkeys are created for the account on everyone’s workstation?
- omnifischer 3y agoThis is stupid. You need to do some sort of delegation. If some one logins now in USA and 10 min later a login is detected from Singapore. And again if US login is detected - this will throw any security to bonkers. May be you/your client needs a proper workflow. May be you need to run some security company/email service at the level of Google to see.
- rcxdude 3y agoSure, but said delegation abilities frequently don't exist, are locked behind a very substantial paywall, or are simply very difficult to set up. Account sharing is a fallback which bypasses all of those issues and so is commonly used, especially in shadow-IT and smaller companies which don't have the resources to invest in a solution with better security properties.
