Abstract
The disclosed technology teaches a method for revocation of user credentials for controlling user access to a private permissioned blockchain data structure or decentralized personal ledger, comprising an administrative logic configured to de-configure user private keys from keystores of respective users. The administrative logic further comprises a revocation logic configured to receive a unique identifier linked to a keystore of a particular user in response to the keystore, and the revocation logic is further configured to revoke access of the keystore based on the unique identifier.
