How to Respond When a Former Employee Account Is Still Active

11/10/2026

An active former employee account may retain access through a missed offboarding step, synchronized identity, or third-party application.

Checks to make

Confirm identity and departure status through an authorized source, disable sign-in, revoke sessions and tokens, and inspect privileged grants and recent activity. Preserve relevant audit records and check downstream apps for separate credentials or integrations.

When to get help
