     * Applications should be signed with only one key at a time, to minimize the exposure of unused private keys.

     * A similar approach can also be used to physically re-flash with a new key. For physical re-flashing, the bootloader content can also be changed at the same time.

+    It may be necessary to revoke a key that isn't currently being used.
+    For example, if the active application is signed with key #0, but key #1 becomes compromised, you should revoke key #1 by using the above approach. The new OTA update should continue to be signed with key #0, and the API `esp_ota_revoke_secure_boot_public_key(SECURE_BOOT_PUBLIC_KEY_INDEX_[N])` can be used to revoke the key #N (N would be 1 in this case). After revoking, all remaining unrevoked keys can still be used to sign future applications.
