At the heart of every application are secrets. Credentials that allow human-to-machine and machine-to-machine communication. Machine identities outnumber human identities by a factor of 45-to-1 and represent the majority of secrets we need to worry about. According to CyberArk’s recent research, 93% of organizations had two or more identity-related breaches in the past year. It is clear that we
