Are You Confident in Your Cloud Security Strategy?
How confident are you in your cybersecurity strategy? The cyber threats demands a robust and comprehensive approach to securing all aspects of your digital assets. This security extends beyond human users and should include Non-Human Identities (NHIs) too.
Understanding Non-Human Identities (NHIs)
NHIs, or machine identities, are integral components of cybersecurity infrastructures. They are unique identifiers created by combining an encrypted 'Secret' and permissions granted to that Secret by a destination server. To provide a metaphor, think of NHIs as tourists traveling in a foreign country. Their 'Secret' is their passport, and the permissions from the server are like the visa stamped on it.
