How to Avoid Single Points of Failure With Backup Admins
One admin is one resignation away from a locked account. Keep more than one Business Portfolio admin so no single person can hold your Instagram hostage — by accident or on purpose.
A single point of failure is any one person, login, or detail that, if lost, locks the business out of its own Instagram.

The single points to remove
The sole admin: if only one person has Admin on the Business Portfolio, add at least one more trusted admin today. This is the single most important fix.

The personal-account dependency: recovery tied to an individual's personal email or phone leaves with that individual. Move recovery to addresses the business owns.
