What Are Non-Human Identities?
Course 1 of 8 in Protect Non-Human Identities
Non-human identities (NHIs) are automated digital accounts with unique security risks that increase attack surface, present lack of visibility, and over-privilege.
Non-human identities (NHIs) like service accounts, API keys and AI agents often go unmonitored and increase the probability of a breach. Part of the identity security strategy, non-human identities, should be discovered, owned and protected to reduce the probability of a breach through monitoring, least privilege, and effective offboarding.
