User De-Provisioning: De-provisioning or account deactivation is another important phase of identity life-cycle management (Gopalakrishnan 2009; Meier et al. 2009; Slone 2004). In a Cloud environment, de-provisioning means real time revocation that involves a synchronized deletion or suspension of CSC’s account along with immediate termination of his access rights from all the organizational services and resources at Cloud. Any delay in de-provisioning could lead to many security risks like malicious use of privileges.

(Habiba et al., 2014, p. 4-5)
