Non-human identities: the rise of the machines

Non-human identities now vastly outnumber human actors on the internet, perhaps by as many as 50 to one.

APIs, online devices and service calls now dominate internet traffic, and access requests.

And this is only set to increase, with the rise of AI and AI agents.

Could we even see "robot wars" as AI agents take on AI defenders?

A lack of visibility, and a lack of control over machine identities is not just putting systems and networks at risk.

It is changing the whole concept of identity.

Now, it's no longer a question of who has access to our systems and data, but what. And the consequences for cybersecurity are far reaching.
