Service Accounts vs. Managed Identities: Real Exploits & Best Practices

Service accounts are everywhere, but their overprivileged, multi-use, and often unmanaged nature makes them a security liability. Managed identities (and other “passwordless” NHIs) are considered a safer alternative, yet they come with their own set of vulnerabilities attackers can exploit. Join this 30-minute webinar to learn from NHI security researchers: • The types and common pitfalls of service accounts. • How to convert service accounts into managed identities in Azure. • The downsides of managed identities - and a live demo of how attackers exploit them. • Best practices to avoid common misconfigurations. *Bonus* Get a practical tool to map all managed identities in your Azure environment (IYKYK).
