The 2026 NHI & AI Breach Report and the new PAM playbook

NHI Mgmt Group analyzed 234 real-world breaches involving non-human identities and AI agents, and 44% were credential-led. Most came down to a credential that never should have existed, or should have expired long ago.
Chris Maroun sits down with Lalit Choda (“Mr. NHI”) to unpack what 2026’s breaches reveal and where privileged access has to go in 2027. They’ll cover the patterns that keep repeating, why vaulting secrets isn’t enough, and how Venice removes standing credentials from scripts, pipelines, and AI agents with just-in-time access, so agents can act without ever holding a secret.
