What to do if your Google account is lost or stolen?
As an administrator, you can block unauthorized access to a user’s Google Account if their device is lost or stolen. You can sign the user out of all current HTTP sessions and reset their sign-in cookies. When you reset sign-in cookies, users must enter their username and password to sign back in to their account.
Usually on the SMB devices, you need to press the reset button for more than 10s, for the device to factory reset itself. Normally all the port LEDs will go up, then you can let go of the reset button. I recommend pressing for at least 30s.
