When a long-tenured employee leaves, the most valuable knowledge they take with them is rarely a list of passwords. Rather, it’s the reasoning behind IT decisions: why a firewall rule exists, why backups run at two in the morning, or why one vendor was chosen over another.
Outdated IT tools have a way of degrading gradually rather than failing dramatically. Systems that worked well a few years ago may start slowing down workflows, creating security gaps that require frequent patching, and increasing maintenance costs.
