+# Least Privilege Policy
+
+Genesis Hosting enforces least privilege access for all systems.
+
+## Principles
+
+- Users are given the minimum level of access necessary to perform their work
+- Admin tools are isolated by function (e.g., billing vs. system access)
+- Escalation of privileges must be requested, documented, and time-bound
+
+## Tools in Use
+
+- WHMCS permissions are restricted by group
+- SSH access is limited using `AllowUsers` and firewalled IPs
+- TeamTalk server admins are rotated and audited monthly
+
+## Review Cycle
+
+- Access roles are reviewed quarterly
+- Logs of access changes are stored and rotated every 90 days

+# User Roles
+
+Genesis Hosting Technologies uses Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) to ensure that users only have access to what they need.
+
+## Role Definitions
+
+| Role           | Description                                              | Examples                         |
+|----------------|----------------------------------------------------------|----------------------------------|
+| Customer       | End users with access to services they’ve purchased      | DirectAdmin clients, Streamers   |
+| Support Staff  | Limited admin functions for resolving client issues      | Helpdesk, WHMCS support agents   |
+| Administrator  | Full access to provision, maintain, and modify services  | Infrastructure admins            |
+| Super Admin    | Root-level access to all systems                         | Owner/Lead Engineer              |
+
+## Guidelines
+
