CLOSING OFFBOARDING GAPS
A missed account during offboarding is an open door. And it’s one of the easiest compliance findings to avoid.
Onboarding gets all the attention. Offboarding gets a checklist someone half-remembers. That’s how orphaned accounts, lingering access, and audit failures happen.
The scenario:
You need a standardized offboarding checklist that works across clients and doesn’t rely on memory.
The prompt:
You’re creating a universal offboarding SOP.
Build a checklist that covers:
– Identity: M365, Google Workspace, VPN, SSO apps
– Devices: Laptop retrieval, MDM wipe, MFA token removal
– Access: Shared drives, service accounts, third-party SaaS
– Handover: Email forwarding, file ownership transfer
– Evidence: Audit log export and sign-off documentation
Format as a checklist with owner assignments and SLA timeframes.
