How to Close Offboarding Security Gaps

Former employee still has access to your systems? Here is how to prevent it.

The Problem

  • Access not revoked when employee leaves
  • Company laptop not returned for weeks
  • Email still active — receives sensitive information
  • No one knows all the systems the employee had access to

The Solution

  • Create an automated offboarding checklist triggered by HR
  • Revoke access within 1 hour of last working day
  • Track asset return and data sanitisation
  • Document all access in the access control register

The Result

Companies with automated offboarding reduce security incidents from departed employees by 95%.
