# Delete User in Vindicia IDP 2.0

The **Delete user** is accessed from the Vindicia IDP 2.0 console to remove the user permanently and immediately from the system. Vindicia IDP revokes all IDs, tokens and sessions to prevent user sign in/authentication before the user's credentials time out.

To delete a user permanently, do the following:

1.

Sign in to Vindicia IDP Console 2.0 by clicking **Manage Users** Link in the Vindicia Portal under your account avatar.

The User Management screen appears.
