The Evolution of Identity Management: Embracing Non-Human Entities in a Digital World

In the rapidly evolving digital landscape, the concept of identity management is expanding beyond traditional human-centric approaches. As IoT devices, bots, and APIs proliferate, ensuring secure and efficient interactions among these non-human entities has become a critical concern. This blog explores the rise of non-human identity management, its challenges, solutions, and future implications. The Shift from Human-Centric to Non-Human-Centric Identity Management Traditionally, identity management focused on human users—employees, customers, and partners—ensuring secure access to resources. However, the digital transformation has introduced a myriad of non-human entities into the ecosystem. From smart home devices to industrial IoT sensors, these entities demand seamless and secure interactions. ...

Identity Governance in the Zero Trust Era: Achieving Dynamic Privileged Access Management with CyberArk and SailPoint

Zero Trust Architecture (ZTA) has revolutionized cybersecurity by shifting the traditional perimeter-based security model towards continuous verification of every user, device, and access request. In this evolving landscape, identity governance and privileged access management (PAM) become critical pillars to ensure that only the right users have the right access at the right time, reducing the attack surface dramatically. What is Zero Trust Architecture (ZTA)? Zero Trust Architecture is a security framework built on the principle of “never trust, always verify.” Unlike traditional models that assume internal network users are trustworthy, ZTA enforces strict identity verification regardless of location or device. Every access request undergoes rigorous authentication and authorization, minimizing risks from insider threats and external attacks. ...
