What Makes NHIs Safe For My Company?
Security Boulevard, Wednesday, January 21st, 2026
Have you ever considered who-or rather, what-is accessing your company's data? While we often focus on human users in cybersecurity strategies, non-human identities (NHIs) play a pivotal role in security architecture today.
How Secure Are Non-Human Identities in Your Company's Digital Strategy?
NHIs refer to machine identities used in cybersecurity, created by coupling a 'Secret'-an encrypted password, token, or key-with permissions granted by destination servers. This analogy is akin to a tourist traveling with a passport that grants them visas based on their credentials. The comprehensive management of these identities is crucial for safeguarding company security.
