You are an IT technician at a medium-sized company. During a routine check, you discover an employee has installed pirated software on their company computer. What is your immediate next step?
When discovering pirated software on a company computer, the primary concern is compliance with licensing agreements and protecting the company from legal issues. The correct course of action is to inform management or the appropriate department, as they will initiate the proper steps to address the violation. Simply removing the software or contacting law enforcement without following company protocols can overlook procedural and documentation requirements.
