NHIs: Understanding the Security Risks of Non-Human Identifiers in Today's Cyber Threat Landscape - Market-News24

The rising importance of Non-Human Identities (NHIs) in cybersecurity is a growing concern for organizations. Unlike traditional human credentials, NHIs such as service accounts, tokens, and API keys rely on secrets for authentication. A staggering number of secrets—23.7 million were leaked on public GitHub in 2024 alone—pose significant risks. Many companies lack visibility over these ...
