Seven months for IT worker who trashed his work network • The Register

According to the police, Mohammed Umar Taj, 31, from the Yorkshire town of Batley, was suspended from his job in nearby Huddersfield in July 2022. But the company didn’t immediately rescind his network credentials, and within hours, he began altering login names and passwords to disrupt operations, the statement says.

To prevent a similar incident, please submit a leavers request as soon as you are aware someone is leaving (future dates can be inputted). You can do this via the Self-Service Portal on your desktop by navigating to:
