Non-human identities (NHIs) are automated digital accounts (service accounts, API keys, AI agents) with unique security risks like increased attack surface, lack of visibility, and over-privilege. Solutions include Zero-Trust, least privilege, secret rotation, monitoring, and ownership. Okta offers ISPM and OPA for management.
