Astrix Customers Lead the Way in Non-Human Identity (NHI) Security: Real-World Success Stories

Astrix Security customers are trailblazers in the realm of NHI security. From automating NHI offboarding processes to swiftly removing super-admin tokens, these real-life accounts offer valuable insights into the implementation of a robust NHI security strategy.

Chapter 1: Comprehensive NHI Inventory and Remediation

In the wake of a security breach, a leading SaaS provider was compelled to reassess the security of their NHI ecosystem, which encompasses tokens, secrets, and service accounts. Despite manually rotating thousands of keys, the nagging question remained: had they truly identified and resolved all compromised identities?

Enter Astrix Security. By leveraging Astrix's extensive capabilities, the security team unearthed 73 compromised CircleCI identities across multiple GitHub organizations. This startling discovery underscored the inadequacy of manual efforts and the critical need for automated NHI inventory and remediation.

Chapter 2: Implementing Zero Trust for NHIs

Fast forward a year, the company's security posture had undergone a remarkable transformation. Astrix's deep-dive analysis revealed the presence of numerous Super-Admin tokens with no expiration across their GitHub organizations. Recognizing the immense risk posed by these tokens, the security team partnered with engineering to eliminate the threat and implement best practices.

Within hours, they successfully removed the risky tokens and introduced a robust policy for token rotation and least privilege. This swift and decisive action effectively neutralized the threat posed by these over-privileged tokens.

Chapter 3: Emerging NHI Experts

Beyond the specific case studies, these experiences highlight the transformative impact of Astrix on the customer's security team. They gained expertise in a previously uncharted territory, enabling them to:

• Identify and close critical security gaps
• Implement best practices across the organization
• Foster collaboration between security and engineering teams

Armed with this newfound expertise, the security team can now enforce NHI policies and best practices across diverse environments, ensuring tight security while embracing the benefits of NHI automation and connectivity.
