Default Administrator Account
The admin user account is the default administrator account. It can configure settings, create users, and
install applications. You cannot delete this account. To prevent malicious actors from compromising your
system due to easy passwords, QNAP strongly recommends changing the default admin password or
creating another administrator account and disabling the default admin account. A new administrator account
can perform the same actions as the default administrator account. There are two reasons for not disabling
the default admin account. If you want to access the QNAP turbo NAS via Secure Shell (SSH) or Telnet, do
not disable the default admin account. Also, if you're going to access Console Management, do not disable
the default admin account.
Creating an Administrator Account

Create another administrator account before disabling the default admin account.
