Saviynt has announced that it now protects all forms of organizational identities, including Non-Human Identities (NHI). The company has expanded its identity security cloud platform to protect NHIs such as workloads, bots, and credentials. This is in addition to the existing capability of supporting NHI service accounts. The announcement was made just before Identiverse 2025, set for June 3-6 in Las Vegas, where Saviynt executives will lead a workshop on NHI.
As the authority in identity security, Saviynt will spotlight its latest innovations in NHI protection – integrated within its converged platform, The Identity Cloud. Attendees can visit booth #638 to see firsthand how Saviynt is redefining enterprise security by delivering converged, scalable protection through a single pane of glass for all digital identities – human and non-human – at scale.
As organizations embrace automation, AI, and cloud-native development, NHIs now vastly outnumber human users – by as much as 100:1 in DevOps environments. Saviynt’s Identity Cloud delivers full visibility, posture management, and actionable recommendations for all identities, enabling enterprises to discover and secure every NHI, including workloads, bots, and credentials. The platform extends its best-in-class controls to NHIs, offering deep insight into activity history, usage patterns, and prioritized risk insights – all without the need for additional tools or complex configurations.
Saviynt’s NHI capabilities are purpose-built to simplify and secure the most complex identity environments, helping organizations eliminate blind spots across cloud and hybrid ecosystems. The platform enables teams to:
- Discover all non-human identities and their access in a unified view: Get complete, real-time inventory of your non-human identity landscape.
- Understand security posture of non-human identities with deep analysis: Granular analysis of non-human identity activity and relationships to surface prioritized identity security and compliance issues.
- Visualize non-human identity activity with timeline view: Surfaces access events, as well as lifecycle changes, to enable faster response and ensure compliance.
The growing demand for a converged, intelligent identity security platform has never been more urgent. With Agentic AI accelerating fast, organizations need a modern identity security foundation with the depth and flexibility to govern the right access for every identity — human or machine, known or emerging. Saviynt is at the forefront of delivering on that need. This leadership is reflected in the company’s prominent presence at Identiverse, where five of Saviynt’s top executives will share their expertise on the most pressing identity challenges and innovations, including how to drive the next wave of innovation to meet the significant identity challenges introduced by Agentic AI.

Guest Post: Microsoft begins Authenticator password phase-out this weekend – act before you lose access to your accounts
Posted in Commentary with tags Nordpass on May 30, 2025 by itnerdA friendly and somewhat urgent reminder to all Microsoft Authenticator users – starting this Sunday, June 1, you will no longer be able to save new passwords in the Authenticator. Microsoft is phasing out the password management and autofill features of its Authenticator app to consolidate them within the Microsoft Edge browser. This change is akin to what Google did with Chrome.
Phase-out timeline
Those who wish to continue using their passwords, logins, and other saved data after August 2025 will need to separately install Edge on their smartphones or other devices.
Also, starting July 2025, all credit card details and payment information will be removed from Authenticator. According to Microsoft, payment details won’t transfer automatically to Edge or other services, so you’ll need to re-enter your information manually. It doesn’t matter whether you choose Edge or a dedicated password manager solution.
The Edge browser
Microsoft’s announcement about moving password management functionality to the Edge browser has sparked a debate online – is this move justified, and will it work? On Reddit and other social platforms, IT industry professionals who work with Microsoft infrastructure and tools, seem to agree that the tech giant is making storing and syncing passwords across different devices less complicated.
But most also agree that it does feel like Microsoft is pushing its Edge browser, which now holds around 5.2% of the global market (all platforms). In comparison, Google’s Chrome browser has around 66.2% of the market.
Users need to choose
Some analysts suggest that this move could prompt users to re-evaluate their overall password management strategy, potentially leading them to explore other solutions, especially since dedicated password managers typically offer strong encryption and are not tied to a specific browser or ecosystem.
“Microsoft’s decision to phase out password management from Authenticator represents a significant shift in the company’s approach to digital security. It seems like Microsoft is simplifying credential management across different devices and bringing password management logic closer to the market-dominant model, which is already familiar to many users. In addition, the company has a chance to increase the popularity of its browser. In theory, it’s a win-win situation. But people have various personal likes and dislikes, are often used to a particular ecosystem or a browser and may not wish to move. In that case, a dedicated password management solution might be a good idea since it can provide cross-platform synchronization across multiple browsers and devices, secure storage for credentials, and features like breach monitoring and encrypted sharing,” says Karolis Arbaciauskas, head of business product at NordPass.
If you don’t want to use Edge, you can export your passwords to a different service by heading to Authenticator > “Settings” > “Export passwords” > “Export” and then importing the saved file to the password manager of your choice.
