At the 2025 UNLOCK roadshow, we introduced Saviynt’s latest AI innovations featuring Identity Security Posture Management for Non-Human Identities (ISPM for NHI). Today, we’re thrilled to announce its general availability, extending our AI-driven platform to deliver continuous discovery, risk insights, and automated remediation for every non-human identity.
The battle for your enterprise security is no longer fought at the login screen. It’s happening behind the scenes, in the vast automation landscape where non-human identities (NHIs) such as service accounts, API keys, bots, and application credentials quietly run the business, often holding more power than people but with far less oversight.
According to recent Verizon research, stolen credentials are still the top attack vector, responsible for 38% of all breaches. And now, nearly 70% of organizations admit they’re moderately to highly concerned about their vulnerability to NHIs.
This is the urgent reality: NHIs are multiplying across your legacy systems, business applications, shared accounts,and cloud environments faster than security teams can keep up. It’s the duality of AI, the same intelligent automation powered by non-human interactions that fuels innovation, efficiency and also widens that attack surface. Traditional security tools weren’t built for this new reality, leaving enterprises with incomplete inventories, unclear risk priorities, and over-privileged access that feels too risky to fix.
It’s time to bring visibility, control, and intelligent remediation to this hidden layer of identity risk.. That’s exactly what Saviynt’s ISPM for NHI delivers, a powerful extension of our unified Identity Cloud.
The True Advantage: IGA Heritage Meets Non-Human Identity
As a leader in Identity Governance and Administration (IGA), we understand that securing NHIs isn’t a standalone challenge— it is an identity governance problem that requires real-time, AI-driven speed.
We solve the NHI challenge by extending our proven governance principles for human identities to non-human identities. Our solution delivers a consolidated view that visualizes and preserves the critical relationships between human and non-Human users, ensuring every NHI is tied back to a human owner, a business purpose, and an enforceable policy.
Bringing Your Non-Human Identities out of the Shadows: How ISPM for NHI Delivers
Our solution is engineered to tackle core NHI challenges head-on, delivering immediate and profound benefits through its powerful features:
1. Unified Visibility: Your Complete NHI Inventory
No more fragmented spreadsheets or endless searches. ISPM for NHI provides unified, real-time discovery of every NHI across your ecosystem – spanning cloud environments,SaaS applications, DevOps pipelines, and on-premises infrastructure.
The Benefit: Eliminate one of the biggest security blind spots. You gain a comprehensive and continuously updated inventory that drastically reduces the attack surface by identifying shadow NHIs and ensuring no non-human identity goes unnoticed or unmanaged. This is the first step to true control.
2. Contextual Insight: Understanding Access, Ownership, and Usage
Knowing an NHI exists isn't enough; you need to understand its story. ISPM for NHI delivers rich context, including detailed access maps, clear ownership attribution, and precise usage patterns. This reveals exactly what each NHI can do, who is accountable for it, and whether it's even being used.
The Benefit: Accelerate remediation with confidence. Context on ownership, usage, and dependencies enables security teams to quickly fix misconfigurations. Automated workflows allow you to take decisive action (e.g., revoke, rotate) without the fear of breaking mission-critical processes, transforming remediation from a guessing game into an informed action.
3. Risk Assessment & Intelligent Remediation: Focus on What Matters
Not all NHIs pose the same threat. ISPM for NHI uses advanced analytics to perform continuous risk assessment, prioritizing risks based on factors like over-privilege, inactivity, and exposed credentials. We then provide intelligent, automated remediation playbooks.
The Benefit: Proactive risk mitigation that saves time and prevents breaches. Instead of managing a massive, unprioritized list of vulnerabilities, your team can focus its efforts on the 5% of NHIs that pose 95% of your organizational risk – significantly reducing critical attack vectors and enhancing your overall security posture.
4. Accountable Ownership: Building a Secure Foundation
ISPM for NHI assigns clear accountable ownership to every non-human identity. This links each NHI to a responsible human owner or team, ensuring that governance is embedded from creation through to deactivation.
The Benefit: Achieve continuous compliance and foster a culture of accountability. With clear ownership, you can demonstrate control over your fastest-growing, most privileged identity segment. This not only bolsters your Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) posture but also significantly reduces operational costs associated with manual audits and compliance reporting.
Govern Your Future
The sheer volume of non-human identities is only accelerating with the rise of AI. Failing to govern these identities is no longer an option—it’s an open invitation to a breach.
ISPM for NHI builds on the same trusted governance framework that secure your human identities, bringing order to the chaos of non-human identity sprawl. We deliver a solution that helps eliminate hidden risks and give you the confidence to scale automation securely.
