This is good advice. Having had to let an employee go on less than happy terms is not fun, and it is very important to make sure you have all password specific information protected as well as digital files.

Absolutely Carla!

Maintaining least previliege is a good model, group membership for accountability who is doing what if there's an audit. Local account passwords are really a pain. I hear there's a service to change it to a temporal password and has to be referenced by some method via web portal or smart key (two factor authentication, credential and something you know or have) and update answer files for deployment. I used to think it was humiliating to call security to get the ex-employee and escort them out, but this is also to protect intellectual property and prevent malicious intent, revoking credentials should be done before/during calling security. Depending on the business atmosphere it really needs to be expressed EFFECTIVE IMMEDIATELY, some work environments can be too relaxed and if this the case it should be handled preventively and not beat around the bush. Lesigh.

Oh for sure. I mean, giving one or two people the keys to the kingdom is setting yourself up for issues, passwords and access aside.

Absolutely, in fact, as soon as it is known the employee is going to be let go.
