Secrets Management Horror Stories from the Field: Four Compliance Pitfalls Organizations Can't Ignore

Regulatory pressure from DORA, NIS2, and the UK Cyber Assessment Framework is forcing organizations to answer a critical question: can they clearly prove which machines accessed which resources, when, and for what purpose. This webinar examines the compliance risks created by unmanaged machine identities and weak secrets governance, drawing on real world experience from security teams working with customers across EMEA.

The session highlights four common pitfalls, including incomplete asset inventories, access controls that overlook non human identities, fragmented vault usage across cloud and on premises environments, and unmanaged third party credentials. Presenters will share how these gaps turn into audit findings and explain practical, field tested approaches for strengthening centralized discovery and governance. Attendees will gain insight into how improving machine identity management and secrets control can reduce regulatory exposure without disrupting development workflows.
