This blog post introduces "time to revoke," a CISO-focused metric measuring how long exposed credentials remain usable from validation to confirmed invalidation, outlines the four timestamps to capture (detection, validation, owner assignment, invalidation), and recommends KPIs (median, P90, percent within SLA, owner coverage, percent still valid after detection, and manual escalation rate) plus operational guidance and tooling to reduce the exposure window.
