You Can't Secure What You Can't See: Making Non-Human Identities Governable

Non-human identities (NHIs) — service accounts, tokens, API keys, and connection strings — power modern infrastructure but are often invisible to security teams. Scattered across secrets managers, CI/CD systems, Kubernetes, cloud IAM, and SaaS platforms, they frequently become orphaned, overprivileged, or leaked without anyone noticing. GitGuardian NHI Governance addresses this by providing a centralized inventory of NHIs with ownership assignment, risk pattern detection (public/internal leaks, cross-environment secrets, long-lived credentials, overprivileged identities), and an exploration map showing dependencies before rotation or revocation. The core argument is that continuous visibility and clear ownership are prerequisites for effective NHI governance.
