Abstract
A program on a device communicates with services of an organization and obtains data associated with the organization (also referred to as organization data). The organization data is optionally encrypted using one or more encryption keys, in which case the program has access to one or more decryption keys allowing the organization data to be decrypted and used at the device. Situations can arise in which the organization data stored on the device is to no longer be accessible to a user and/or the device, which is also referred to as the data being revoked. In response to organization data being revoked at the device, various techniques are used to intelligently delete the data, which refers to determining, based on the revocation that occurred and the nature of the data on the device, which data on the device is to be deleted from the device.
