I just think it's important that at least someone (preferably the board) knows exactly who all has admin rights. It's too easy to let that get lost in the shuffle. As time goes on someone may do something either accidentally or on purpose.

I know I'm dealing with that now (I manage a IT department) with a company we just acquired. Someone at that company had Admin rights that no one else thought they had and they accidentally wiped out a 8+ year item history table. It took my guys a long time to fix that mess (thankfully at least they had good backups).

We do have backups of everything, correct? If so, how often is it backed up, and what is the retention policy?

I'm a software developer and know the importance of who has access to the admin rights. There hasn't been but a hand full of people who have had it since it was handed to me in 2005

we are on a virtual server that gets daily backups at our hosting company as well as I keep a second db backup that gets updated weekly just in case , we moved to a virtual once we got hacked a while back. Now maast can be shut down and reinstalled in minutes on any server at our hosting company if a server gets hacked.

Cool, thanks for the info! Please understand Brian I wasn't trying to complain, point fingers or try to insinuate anything was not kosher. I was asking the questions because I didn't know myself and I was curious. I know how much work goes into Administering sites like this, as I've been on your end more then a few times. It's a lot of work, pressure without a lot of thanks.

So at least from this guy, you Admins get my thanks!
