Knowledge Base & Operational DocumentationHow to Review Security Before Allowing a Contractor to Use a Company Laptop
A contractor using a company laptop may need access to project tools but should not inherit broad access from a previous user or retain accounts after the engagement. Ownership and return dates need to be clear.
What to check
Confirm contractor identity and sponsor, device enrollment, required applications, data access, account expiry, local admin need, endpoint monitoring, and return process. Check whether the device is shared or assigned to another person.
Recommended next step
Use a named account with time-bounded access, apply the organization’s device baseline, and set an end date with an owner responsible for revocation and device return. Review access if the project scope changes.
