It describes how legacy PAM tools and newer non-human identity (NHI) platforms each address only part of the problem, creating silos that hurt security, audit efficiency, and business agility. The piece advocates for a unified, policy-based, zero-trust approach covering people, machines, and workloads, with ephemeral credentials, software attestation, and cryptographic identity as core building blocks, and closes with high-level steps for starting such a transformation. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
