Protect your organization from security vulnerabilities with our IT offboarding checklist, a systematic framework for managing employee departures. According to Ponemon Institute and DTEX Systems, insider-related cyber incidents cost an average of $16.2 million each year. Many of these incidents result from overlooked access or unreturned assets during offboarding.

This checklist systematically guides IT teams through key steps: revoking network permissions, deactivating user accounts, disabling VPN access, and recovering all company devices. With this template, you reduce the risk of data leaks, non-compliance, and financial loss, so nothing is left to chance when an employee departs.

Frequently asked questions

What happens if an employee refuses to return IT assets?

Document the situation immediately and involve HR and legal teams. Send a formal written request stating the legal obligation to return company property, with potential consequences for non-compliance. If the employee still refuses, you may need to disable the devices remotely, pursue financial recovery for the assets, or in serious cases, take legal action to recover the property.

When should you start the IT offboarding process?

Ideally, begin the IT offboarding process as soon as you receive notice of an employee’s departure. For planned departures, start preparing at least one week before their last day. For immediate terminations, have an emergency offboarding protocol ready to execute within minutes of the decision. Never wait until after an employee’s last day to start the offboarding process.

How do you handle shared accounts during offboarding?

Identify all shared accounts the departing employee had access to and change those passwords immediately. Document which team members still need access, reset credentials for those individuals, and consider implementing a password manager for better security. Review whether any shared accounts can be eliminated in favor of individual accounts with appropriate permissions.

How do you verify that all offboarding steps were completed properly?

Conduct a post-offboarding audit by attempting login tests on all systems, reviewing access logs for any activity after departure date, confirming all hardware is accounted for with serial numbers, and running automated scans for dormant accounts. Document the verification process and have a second IT team member review the completed checklist for accountability.
