Description

The NHI market is experiencing rapid acceleration as enterprises confront the exponential rise of machine identities across multi-cloud, DevOps, and AI-driven environments. With ratios of machine-to-human identities exceeding 17:1 in large organizations, this surge has been fueled by widespread cloud adoption, automation pipelines, and the proliferation of agentic AI systems operating as autonomous identities. The growing recognition of unmanaged NHIs as critical attack vectors has elevated their governance to a board-level priority.

As organizations embrace digital transformation at scale, the demand for advanced and efficient NHI solutions is growing rapidly. To ensure resilience and compliance, enterprises must discover, govern, and protect millions of service accounts, tokens, certificates, and workloads without slowing innovation. This has led to the adoption of automation-first platforms, AI-powered anomaly detection, and integration into CI/CD pipelines, which are now playing an increasingly vital role in enabling secure and seamless enterprise operations.

This study offers a concise overview of the significance of securing NHIs, outlining the potential risks and vulnerabilities faced by enterprises, critical industries, and national infrastructures as machine identities proliferate. It also emphasizes the evolving regulatory and compliance frameworks—such as GDPR, HIPAA, PCI, and NIS2—that are beginning to address the governance of NHIs across global markets.

The study explores regional variations in adoption and growth dynamics, providing quantitative and qualitative insights into developments in North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, Latin America, the Middle East, and Africa, with market projections from 2025 to 2030.

To ensure a comprehensive technical analysis, this research categorizes NHI technologies into 4 primary segments: discovery, management, protection, and protocol access. Each segment is examined through both numerical data and qualitative assessment, highlighting its role in helping enterprises reduce risk, comply with regulations, and secure the future of identity-first security.

How Do Licenses Work?

How Do Licenses Work?

The primary function of a report license is to define how many people within a company are authorized to use the purchased report. This is separate to how a report might be delivered. Unless specifically identified otherwise, the purchase option is Single User. Below is a helpful description of that license, along with a sampling of others most commonly offered.

  • This license allows only one user to have access to and to use/read the report. It is not one user at a time or one user group; it is an individual who will be reading and utilizing the report.

  • This license allows for the entire purchasing company to read and use the report. This is the license level that would allow for a report to be placed on an internal company shared drive for access by all employees of that direct company. This license does not extend to parent or sister company use.

  • This license is designed to allow an entire department within a company full access to a report. The departmental license is a great option for companies that have more than one location and the department is spread out all over the country/world

  • This license is for companies that have one location where they want the report to be accessible by all employees within that physical location.

  • This is the most flexible of the licensing options. Some publishers will allow you to get a license for a preset number of people (typically 5). These licenses are ideal for small work groups.

License options are at the discretion of each publisher. As such, not all licenses indicated above are available for every product. If you are uncertain of the best license for your needs or would like a license that is not proactively available, please contact us and we will be happy to assist.
