Business Wire
Platform Offers Unified Coverage with
Visibility, Monitoring, Posture, Compliance, and Threat Detection
and Response Capabilities
- Rezonate uniquely protects both human and non-human identities
through a unified, context-aware view of machine and human
identities across the entire cloud and SaaS identity fabric.
- This visibility is combined with risk-driven actionability
creating a continuum from human to non-human identities
streamlining security efforts to prevent and defend against modern
threats like supply chain attacks.
- The platform ensures end-to-end security coverage for
programmable access credentials including API keys, OAuth tokens,
service accounts, service principals, and cryptographic keys, and
the humans who create them.
Rezonate, an innovator in identity-first security, today
unveiled unified coverage from human to non-human identity security
(NHI) with comprehensive capabilities: identity inventory and
visibility, security posture, compliance, and identity threat
detection and response (ITDR). The platform is leading the industry
by taking a unified approach to managing both human and non-human
identities and their interdependencies ensuring end-to-end
visibility with risk-driven actionability across the identity
fabric of an organization.

NHIs, also called machine identities, are digital access
credentials that play a crucial role in securing company
infrastructures while automating tasks and increasing business
efficiencies. They are outnumbering human identities as much as 10
to 45 times according to Gartner, which creates a massive attack
surface within organizations. If organizations do not monitor NHIs
appropriately, they’re exposed to attacks that can rapidly spread
throughout their systems without any humans realizing something’s
changed.
Identity-First Approach to NHI Security
Rezonate is unique in offering a combination of visibility,
monitoring, posture, threat detection and response, and compliance
reporting for both non-human and human identities. Most other
vendors only focus on NHI governance, administration, and lifecycle
management. With discovery, inventory, and visibility into NHIs and
associated users simultaneously on the same platform, Rezonate
provides the most complete risk-driven, contextual insights
enabling informed, proactive or even real-time decisions to be
made. As a result, security, identity, and DevOps teams are better
equipped to work together and prevent modern threats like supply
chain attacks, or guided and automated remediation to accelerate
time to security.
“During my experience in national cyber security operations and
cybersecurity, I saw first-hand how defenders divide their world by
adding different tools to solve the same problems. Attackers see
this disparate complexity as a welcome challenge–in their world,
the more chaos, the merrier,” said Roy Akerman, CEO and co-founder
of Rezonate. “In modern threat tactics, attackers are targeting
both machines and humans (the NHI creators and users) as part of
the same attack. Securing NHIs and human identities separately
increases friction, creates blindspots, and slows down the
defenders. That's why we set out to address this rapidly growing
challenge with a unified approach. Rezonate is the very first
identity-centric security solution to offer end-to-end coverage of
non-human identities and their creators with core capabilities for
proactive posture and real-time threat detection and response.”
Protecting NHIs across IaaS, SaaS, and identity provider
platforms, the platform delivers three core capabilities:
- Comprehensive Inventory and Visibility: Rezonate
provides radically simple yet full visibility into NHIs across the
entire attack path, including their authorization and
authentication graphs, security controls, access conditions, and
behavioral profiles. This detailed, real-time view includes
critical information about each NHI, its permissions, entitlements,
and the services it can access, facilitating better audit
performance and accountability.
- NHI Hygiene and Security Posture Management: By
understanding the risks and context associated with NHIs, Rezonate
enables security, identity, and DevOps teams to make informed
decisions. This includes ensuring NHIs have only the necessary
permissions to prevent over-privileged access that attackers could
exploit, facilitating proactive risk mitigation, and enhancing
security posture.
- NHI Threat Detection & Response: Rezonate
continuously monitors NHIs to detect abnormal behaviors and
potential security breaches, including with owners of NHIs.
Automated rules and alerts provide insights into NHI activities,
enabling quick identification and mitigation of issues before they
escalate into full-blown security breaches.
NHIs are the digital, automated, and programmable access
credentials that play a crucial role in securing systems, managing
access, and ensuring the integrity of digital environments while
also helping automate tasks and increase business efficiencies.
Typically coming in the form of API keys, OAuth tokens, service
accounts, and secrets, they are the largest and fastest-growing
part of a company’s identity portfolio.
NHIs ensure seamless operations within modern organizations, and
their significance has only been magnified with each technological
leap—cloud computing, DevOps, robotic process automation (RPA),
Internet of Things (IoT), and next-gen AI advancements. But when
compromised they can silently springboard an adversary into the
heart of a company's most sensitive operations. For example,
Cloudflare’s security incident last fall was a result of attackers
using the access afforded by access tokens and service account
credentials to infiltrate its systems.
Complicating matters is that companies often lack a
comprehensive inventory of NHIs, and don’t have a map of all the
resources they can access and the actions (permissions,
entitlements, etc.) they’re authorized to perform. As a result,
organizations must treat NHIs as first-class citizens to preserve
their security, operational integrity, compliance, and efficiency
in digital endeavors.
