The 2025 State of Machine Identity Security Report reveals that machine identities now vastly outnumber human ones, making them prime targets for attackers. 50% of organizations suffered breaches tied to compromised machine identities, with API keys and SSL/TLS certificates most at risk. 72% faced certificate outages, often disrupting operations, while AI adoption further amplifies risks. Although 92% have programs in place, 42% lack cohesive strategies, and 34% still rely on manual processes. With shorter certificate lifespans and looming quantum threats, automation, visibility, and crypto agility are critical to strengthen machine identity security.
