Hopefully you have a policy in place that each employee has signed,
stating how company information and documents are to be handled.
The last couple of times I was laid off, the company provided boxes for
us for our personal stuff.
I don't believe either place inspected the boxes I took with me. I don't
remember how computer and network access was handled. In one case my
computer was just set aside, as I used it again when I came back as a
consultant.

When I was just leaving at the end of one contract, there was no
management contact at all.
I had to (I chose to) go through my stuff, make sure everyone knew what
they needed to, everything was filed correctly, and tossed the temp
stuff in the shred bin. Security? Not!

Cheers
