Improper offboarding processes can open the doors to a cybercrime. An employee who leaves your company on bad terms may seek revenge and intentionally cause a data breach that can put everyone in your business at risk.  On the other hand, even if an employee ends a business relationship on good terms, an improper offboarding process can still put your team and customer data at risk. For example, if a company does not change passwords to the shared account, an ex-employee could possibly log into this shared account on their personal computer at home. If the ex-employee does not practice good cyber hygiene, they put the company account at risk.
