Deprovisioning

Also written: deprovision, deprovisioned

Removing an account's access and shutting it down when it is no longer needed. For a leaver: disable at once, end sessions and tokens, remove groups, change shared secrets, recover devices, hand over data, and delete only after the retention period.
