Run a Non-Human Identities Security Review Now

A system woke up at 3:14 a.m. and began calling APIs it was never meant to touch. No humans were involved.

This is the frontier of non-human identities: service accounts, machine credentials, CI/CD tokens, IoT certs. They have broad permissions, rarely expire, and often go unmonitored. A single misconfiguration can let automated processes access critical data or rewrite production code.

A Non-Human Identities Security Review is no longer optional. It is a direct audit of every token, certificate, and automated identity in your network. The goal: find unused credentials, over-scoped permissions, and weak rotation policies before attackers or rogue processes exploit them.

Start by mapping all non-human identities across infrastructure, code repositories, and integrations. Track their origin, what they can do, and when they last did it. Remove or rotate any credential not in active use. Enforce least privilege by tightening scopes at the API, cloud IAM, and application levels. Audit logs must reveal every call made by these identities, with alerts for any deviation from expected patterns.

Modern systems multiply non-human identities with each deployment. Left unchecked, they become invisible doors to your most guarded assets. A disciplined security review turns those doors into locked gates controlled by policy, automation, and human oversight.

You have automation on your side too. Tools exist to surface non-human identities in seconds, evaluate risk, and trigger immediate remediation. The faster you run the review, the smaller the attack surface becomes.
