Use case 06

When something changes. Access adapts.

Revoke the one thing that changed. Every consumer applies it at its next read, inside a window it states in advance, and everything else keeps running.

2Trust updatesThe party that owns it publishes.

Instance stopped

The attester publishes it. That copy's bit changes on its signed list.

Key revoked

Connect's certificate service publishes it. The published key set drops it, and the revocation list carries it.

Accreditation withdrawn

The issuing authority publishes it. Its list drops it, and the role's policy leaves the statement.

Agent withdrawn

The authority publishes it. The governed record changes state and the statement stops being published.

Recognition withdrawn

The authority above that root publishes it. It stops publishing its statement about the root.
