About this tag
Non-human identities (NHIs) such as applications, scripts, service accounts, and AI agents now outnumber human users in modern IT environments, creating new security challenges. Discussions on WindowsForum.com cover how tools like Okta Agent Discovery and Aembit's Workload IAM platform integrate with Microsoft Azure Entra to detect, manage, and secure these identities. Topics include shadow AI risks, OAuth credential governance, zero-trust workload access, and automated remediation against AI-driven attacks. The focus is on identity-first security for non-human entities across hybrid cloud and enterprise Microsoft ecosystems.
Okta’s new Agent Discovery capability brings identity-first visibility to a problem that has quietly become an enterprise-scale risk: employees and automation builders creating unsanctioned AI agents that bind to corporate data using OAuth and service credentials, often outside IT governance...
Picture this: your Security Operations Center lights up at 03:00 because an AI-driven campaign has sent 10,000 bespoke phishing messages aimed at your executives, each message tuned from public LinkedIn content and corporate signals. The immediate threat isn't a novel zero‑day — it’s volume...
Aembit has recently expanded its Workload Identity and Access Management (IAM) platform to integrate with Microsoft's Azure Entra ecosystem, a move that significantly enhances the security and efficiency of managing non-human identities across hybrid cloud environments. This development...
In the rapidly evolving landscape of cybersecurity, the management of non-human identities (NHIs)—such as applications, scripts, and service accounts—has emerged as a critical challenge. Aembit, a leader in non-human identity and access management (IAM), has recently expanded its Workload IAM...
For years, identity and access management (IAM) has been the bedrock of organizational security, providing the crucial control points that prevent unauthorized human access to sensitive resources. Yet, as cloud migration accelerates and automated workloads such as scripts, applications, and AI...
