Answer:
Notifying your employer of all accounts you have access to, and requesting that they change all passwords before you leave.
Explanation:
Trying to grab a copy of your work software can harm the company by potentially creating a security risk. There can still be residual files left by the company left in the software, and any virus or hackers that access your computer can find those files or connect to the company's cloud network.
Selling trade secrets will not only be bad for the company once your employment is terminated, but can actually lead to job termination itself because with those secrets out, competing companies can make identical products of the same (or better) quality for less money, which could result in a loss of profits or even going out of business. This is why non-disclosure agreements exist.
If you can still access company information even after you leave, this poses a security threat to the company because you can then sell that information to other companies or leak it online for everyone to see. Even if you don't do it yourself, a virus or hacker lurking on your computer would be more than happy to do it for you. That information could also be personal payment or identifying information of employees and clients/customers, which could cause people to lose trust in the company.
The best thing to do to avoid facing these consequences and protect other people's information is to turn over your accounts and any information you have of the company and allow them to revoke your access to that information. This not only helps the company remain secure and profitable, but you also won't have to possibly deal with law enforcement and have fewer job opportunities as a result.
