Delete a Policy

Policies can be deleted by the Key Owner.

Process Overview

1. Submit Request: The user creates a request payload containing the key_id.
2. Sign Request: The request is signed by the Key Owner (User) to ensure authenticity.
3. Node Validation & Deletion: The Node validates the signature and authorizes the deletion. Then, it removes the policy and its MAC from the database.

Upon receiving the request, the Node performs the following:

• Authentication: Authenticates the request using the provided signatures (e.g. user_sig, WPBE_sig).
• Deletion: The Policy and its MAC are permanently removed from the storage.
