Manage hardware tokens
Hardware tokens have an Active or Inactive status. Inactive tokens cannot be used for authentication. If a user misplaces their hardware token, you can disable it to reduce the risk of anyone else using it. If the user finds the token later, you can re-enable the token and it can be used again.
Hardware tokens also have an internal clock. The clock's current time is used to generate token code values. Over time, the token and Identity as a Service can become out-of-sync. If this happens, Identity as a Service must be re-synced to the token. Synchronization also happens automatically when a successful token authentication occurs. Only assigned tokens can be synchronized. A token can be synchronized any number of times, but cannot be synchronized to a value prior to the current time step stored in the token.

Delete a hardware token assigned to a userDelete a hardware token assigned to a user
You can delete authenticators assigned to users. For example, you might want to delete a token if the token is not performing authentications successfully or if the token has expired. A hardware token can be deleted by deleting the token's data file. If the wrong data file is accidently deleted, the token can be uploaded again by uploading the token's data file to Identity as a Service. See Import hardware tokens for more information.
