Configure your PC or Mac to automatically lock when unattended as a background safety net.
Create an official Google identity tied directly to your @b1g2.io email address so you can access client Google Drives, Google Meet calls, and shared workspace docs without mixing in personal Gmail accounts.
Navigate to accounts.google.com/SignUp. When prompted for who you are creating it for, choose For work or my business (or For personal use).
Do not create a new @gmail.com username. Look right below the username field and click the button that says "Use your existing email" or "Use my current email address instead".
Google will immediately send a 6-digit verification code to your official company email. Open your Microsoft Outlook inbox, copy the code, and paste it into the Google verification window.

Sprint updates, internal SOPs, project boards, general client communication.
Account passwords, shared vendor logins, API keys, database access tokens, and 2FA recovery backup codes.
The Risk: Personal apps lack corporate data loss protection, centralized discovery, and automated backups.
