Navigating the Complex Landscape of Non-Human Identity Detection and Response (NHIDR) for Enhanced Cybersecurity



Non-human identities have become a significant vulnerability in modern cybersecurity, with attackers exploiting them to move laterally across systems and compromise sensitive data. To address this growing threat, Entro has developed Non-Human Identity Detection and Response (NHIDR), a cutting-edge technology that empowers organizations to proactively detect and respond to NHIDR breaches.

  • The frequency and sophistication of modern cyberattacks have surged, rendering traditional security measures ineffective.
  • The rise of automation, AI, and IoT technologies has led to an exponential growth in non-human identities.
  • NHIs allow malicious actors to orchestrate large-scale breaches, exploit APIs, and launch sophisticated supply chain attacks.
  • NHIDR empowers organizations to proactively identify and mitigate risks associated with non-human identities.
  • NHIDR ensures constant vigilance with dynamic, real-time analysis, addressing day 0 threats before security teams can react.
  • NHIDR represents a paradigm shift from reactive to proactive security, offering real-time detection and automated responses.



  • In an era where technology advances at a breathtaking pace, organizations face unprecedented challenges in safeguarding their sensitive data and critical infrastructure from cunning cyberattacks. The frequency and sophistication of modern cyberattacks have surged, rendering traditional security measures ineffective against the relentless onslaught of threats. When non-human identities (NHIs) are compromised, attackers can swiftly exploit them to move laterally across systems, identify vulnerabilities, and compromise additional NHIs in minutes. This alarming trend necessitates a paradigm shift in cybersecurity strategies, with a focus on detecting and responding to NHIDR breaches.

    The rise of automation, artificial intelligence (AI), and Internet of Things (IoT) technologies has led to an exponential growth in non-human identities. While these systems drive efficiency and innovation, they also create an expanded attack surface for cybercriminals. The increasing reliance on AI models themselves as targets for manipulation enables attackers to deceive detection mechanisms. Moreover, NHIs allow malicious actors to orchestrate large-scale breaches, exploit APIs, and launch sophisticated supply chain attacks.

    To address this critical security gap, Entro has developed Non-Human Identity Detection and Response (NHIDR). This cutting-edge technology empowers organizations to proactively identify and mitigate risks associated with non-human identities. At the heart of NHIDR lies its ability to establish baseline behavioral models for each NHI using historical data. This eliminates the need for "soak time" or extended observation periods, accessing the data it needs immediately.

    Once these baselines are established, NHIDR continuously monitors NHIs, identifying deviations that indicate misuse, abuse, or compromise. Unlike static inventory-based methods, NHIDR ensures constant vigilance with dynamic, real-time analysis. This proactive capability is vital for addressing day 0 threats—attacks that emerge before security teams have time to react.

    NHIDR represents a paradigm shift from reactive to proactive security. By continuously monitoring and analyzing NHIs and secrets, it ensures organizations can prevent breaches before they occur. Automated remediation processes, such as revoking compromised tokens, minimize downtime and enhance overall security posture.

    The emergence of NHIDR technology is transforming the cybersecurity landscape, offering real-time detection, automated responses, and a proactive approach to securing non-human identities. With NHIDR, organizations can safeguard their assets, maintain compliance, and stay ahead of the threat landscape.
