What about:

       simple_deny_users (string)
           Comma separated list of users who are explicitly denied access.

       simple_deny_groups (string)
           Comma separated list of groups that are explicitly denied access. 
This applies only to
           groups within this SSSD domain. Local groups are not evaluated.

Whitelisting is much secure than blacklisting.
