Free OWASP NHI glossary for machine identity, secrets, and audit terms

Download this free OWASP Top 10 Non-Human Identities glossary and give your team a faster way to understand the terms behind machine identity security.

This editable glossary is designed for security, IAM, DevSecOps, platform, cloud, and GRC teams working with service accounts, workload identities, API keys, tokens, secrets, rotation, revocation, ownership, audit evidence, and governance.
