Access Rights Termination Policy

A human resources manager notifies the IT manager the night before an employee will be terminated so the employee's access rights can be removed.

Which of the following policies is being exercised?

A.

Privileged user agreement

B.

AUP

C.

Non-disclosure agreement

D.

Offboarding.

D.

The policy being exercised in this scenario is Offboarding.

Offboarding is the process of managing the transition of an employee leaving an organization. It involves the removal of the employee's access to company systems and data, as well as the return of company property, such as laptops, phones, and badges.

In the scenario given, the human resources manager is notifying the IT manager the night before an employee will be terminated so the employee's access rights can be removed. This is an example of offboarding because the IT manager is taking action to remove the employee's access to company systems and data as part of the process of the employee leaving the organization.

In contrast, a privileged user agreement is a contract that outlines the responsibilities and restrictions of users who have privileged access to an organization's systems and data. An Acceptable Use Policy (AUP) defines the acceptable use of company resources, such as email, internet, and software, by employees. A non-disclosure agreement (NDA) is a legal agreement that prohibits the sharing of confidential information.

Therefore, options A, B, and C do not apply to the scenario given in the question.
