In 2024, phishing threats have become more sophisticated, with cybercriminals leveraging new methods such as quishing and multi-channel attacks.

NHIs now outnumber human identities in enterprise environments, often by a staggering ratio. While they streamline processes, enable scalability, and facilitate automation, these identities also present significant security risks.
