Defending the non-human attack surface with Okta ISPM

Non-human identities (NHIs) are the backbone of modern automation, but they are also the most vulnerable entry point for attackers. Unlike human users, bots don't use MFA, often have non-expiring credentials, and frequently accumulate excessive privileges ("permission creep").

This technical session explores how Okta Identity Security Posture Management (ISPM) solves the visibility and governance crisis surrounding NHIs. We will move beyond theory and discuss the practical application of ISPM to detect shadow identities, visualize complex permission chains, and prevent identity-based attacks before they start.

What you’ll walk away with:

  • Automated Discovery: How to catalog unmanaged NHIs across SaaS, IaaS, and PaaS without manual audits.
  • Risk Context: Methods to distinguish between benign service accounts and those exposing critical assets.
  • Attack Path Analysis: Visualizing how compromised bots can facilitate lateral movement.
  • Remediation Workflows: Practical steps to right-size permissions and secure machine credentials.
