There are a couple ways to securely remove a user’s access to their Cloud PC. If you remove the user’s license or targeted provisioning policy, their Cloud PC is moved into a seven-day grace period. This grace period allows for errors and reinstatement without impact to the user. To block access immediately, disable the user account in on-premises Active Directory and revoke the user’s refresh tokens in Microsoft Azure Active Directory.

After the grace period expires, Windows 365 deprovisions the Cloud PC and its storage completely. The Cloud PCs are encrypted using [server-side encryption in Azure Disk Storage](/azure/virtual-machines/disk-encryption) (platform-managed keys) so that devices are deprovisioned securely.

Each internal customer data subscription in Windows 365 Enterprise contains Azure Virtual Desktop (AVD) metadata, Cloud PCs, and Storage from multiple tenants. Each VM is connected to a single virtual network interface card (NIC). During provisioning of the Cloud PC, that NIC is attached to a single virtual network in a customer's Azure subscription. The virtual network is defined by the tenant administrator. Every Cloud PC is assigned to a single user by using the AVD connection brokering layer. The access control list (ACL) for the AVD layer is authenticated by Azure AD at the tenant and user level. Network access to and from a Cloud PC in Windows 365 is at the control and discretion of each tenant administrator. So, Cloud PCs in tenant A can't be accessed by users in tenant B, unless the tenant A administrator chooses to provide connectivity outside Windows 365 and AVD at the network layer in their own subscription.
