Revoke an Identity Device

Article summary

When you revoke a device, you invalidate all credentials it contains. If a credential is a certificate, the serial number is added to the Certificate Revocation List (CRL), which is maintained by the Issuing Certificate Authority (either in Axiad Cloud or in your environment, depending on how your organization is set up). Once revoked, and once the CRL service checks the CRL, you can no longer use the certificate.

IMPORTANT

Revocation is final and cannot be undone.

Revoke a Device

  1. On the My Identities page, locate the identity device you want to revoke. 

  2. In the Actions column, click Revoke from the menu.

  1. Once revoked, the device no longer appears on the My Identities page.

Note

Depending upon your service provider's Certificate Revocation List caching refresh schedule, certificate revocations could take up to 30 days. Check with your CRL service (such as Entra ID, Okta, or Ping) or your IT administrator to validate the caching refresh schedule.
