Employee Onboarding and Offboarding

Secure onboarding and offboarding processes close one of the most common gaps in a company’s security.

Overview

Onboarding: New employees should start with the right access and the right habits. We set up secure access controls so new hires reach only the systems and data their role requires, and provide cybersecurity training on phishing, password management and data handling from day one.

Offboarding: When someone leaves, access to company systems, email accounts and sensitive data must be revoked promptly. We remove access, monitor for unusual activity and help reinforce confidentiality obligations, significantly reducing the risk of data breaches and insider threats.

What’s included

  • Accounts, email and licenses ready before a new hire’s first day
  • A computer configured with the right applications and security settings
  • Access limited to the systems and data each role requires
  • Security awareness training from the first week
  • Prompt removal of all access when someone leaves, timed with your HR process
  • Handling of a departing employee’s email and files the way you choose
  • Monitoring for unusual activity around departures

Who it’s for

Growing businesses that hire regularly, and any company that has ever discovered a former employee still had access to email or files months after leaving.

What clients say

Trusted by Colorado businesses

I can’t believe how smoothly our network overhaul went. New workstations, a new server, and an email migration to Office 365 were all planned for and implemented by Galileo, in a timely fashion with minimal impact to our organization.

Kristin Dunn Deputy Director, Colorado Counties, Inc.

The reason we outsource our IT support to Galileo can be summed up in one word: Security. Security in knowing that our problems will be solved, that they are available immediately to respond, and that our network and computers are in good hands.

FAQ

Employee Onboarding and Offboarding: common questions

How much notice do you need for a new hire?

As much as you can give. Telling us when an offer is accepted lets us have the account, computer and access ready for the first day.

Can access be removed at a specific moment?

Yes. For sensitive departures we coordinate the timing with you, so access is removed at the moment you choose.

What happens to a departing employee’s email?

Whatever works best for your business. We can forward it to a manager, convert it to a shared mailbox or archive it, so nothing important is lost.
