How Enterprises Can Prevent Departing Employees from Leaking Sensitive Company Data
Employee resignation does not automatically mean that data risk is out of control. But if permissions are not tightened in time, endpoint egress channels are left uncontrolled, and the flow of sensitive files remains invisible, the resignation period can easily become a high-risk window for data leakage. Starting from the common blind spots in enterprise management, this article systematically examines the core challenges and governance approaches for preventing data leakage by departing employees, and explains how organizations can build a complete protection mechanism covering the pre-departure stage, the handover period, and the post-departure phase through capabilities such as endpoint control, data protection, and behavioral auditing.
