1、State of Machine Identity ManagementForewordThe challenges of identity and access management(IAM)continue to grow.The ongoing evolution in the workplace employees working remotely,high turnover rates,and economic pressures still in place as the pandemic eases creates a turbulent environment for thos

2、e tasked with IAM.One response has been the continued rapid growth of machines as part of the workforce.This has resulted in more servers,IoT devices,containers,applications,and end-user devices as organizations scramble to improve customer responsiveness while improving efficiency.Last year I obser

3、ved that the forces driving this growth of the machine workforce were only going to accelerate.I am not prescient;the trends are very clear.Yet as these organizations incorporate machines into their ecosystems,identifying and providing them with an identity(and then managing it)has become more diffi

4、cult.More than 60%of respondents to our third annual State of Machine Identity Management Report with the Ponemon Institute said they do not know how many keys and certificates they have which is 7%more than last year.The embrace of zero trust,whether in a government agency or a corporation,the incr

5、eased use of IoT devices,and the adoption of cloud-based services are all driving the deployment of keys,PKI,and certificates.As a result,finding ways to get a handle on the challenge and reducing the complexity of the PKI environment is one of this years top priorities.And new challenges are arisin

6、g.Concerns about a post-quantum world,where quantum computers hold the potential for being able to break current cryptographic algorithms,are increasing,and the understanding that most cryptographic providers will need to migrate to new quantum-resistant ones is driving organizations to rethink PKI
