  • Unique Roles: Each role should be distinct and specific to a set of responsibilities. This prevents overlap and confusion.

  • Avoid Overloading: Avoid loading a role with too many privileges. The principle of least privilege should be followed - assign only necessary rights to a role.

  • Memorable Yet Secure: Role names should be intuitive and easy to remember, but not too predictable to avoid potential security risks.

  • Ideal Length: A role name that is too short may lack clarity, while a long one may be hard to remember. Aim for a sweet spot between 6 to 14 characters.

  • Special Characters? Think Twice: Avoid special characters in the role name instead use your creativity to provide a better name.

  • Consistent Naming Convention: Managing multiple roles? Having a consistent naming structure can simplify management and identification.

  • No Offensive Language: Ensure the role names are professional and respectful.

  • Regular Audits: Review roles and their privileges regularly to maintain security and prevent unauthorized access.

  • Delete: Need to temporarily suspend a role? Remove users from the role instead of deleting it. If the role is no longer needed, then consider deletion.
