remove access

To remove access is to take away a person’s, account’s, or group’s existing permission to use a system, service, or resource.

In plain English

This means ending permission that already exists. A person, account, or group is no longer allowed to use the relevant system, service, or resource. It is about taking away current permission, not about permission that was never given.

In context

In this context, “remove access” communicates that the person’s existing permission to use the workspace area is being taken away.
