Lalit Choda (Mr. NHI) founder of the NHI Mgmt Group ‪‬launches the Non-Human & AI Identity Podcast, a dedicated space for real, unfiltered conversations about the identities shaping modern systems.

• By Humans for Humans, No AI Generated Content.
• Mr. NHI hosts the voices shaping the future of Non-Human & Agentic AI Identity.

Hosted by Mr. NHI, the podcast brings together the practitioners, founders, and security leaders who are actively defining the future of Non-Human Identity (NHI) and Agentic AI Identity. This isn’t theory or hype, it’s grounded discussion based on what’s actually happening inside organizations as identity moves far beyond human users.

In episode 1, Itzik Alvas CEO of Entro Security joins Mr. NHI for a deep conversation on the evolving NHI & AI Identity journey. Together, they reflect on how identity security has transformed over the last few years, from a human-centric discipline to one dominated by machines, workloads, service accounts, and now autonomous and agentic AI systems.

As AI agents begin to reason, act, and operate with real privileges, the identity problem fundamentally changes. What were once background technical identities are now becoming decision-making actors, and that shift has massive implications for security, governance, and risk.

In this episode “𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗡𝗛𝗜 & 𝗔𝗜 𝗝𝗼𝘂𝗿𝗻𝗲𝘆” – we unpack some of the most pressing questions facing organizations today:

– Where is the industry now
– AI Agents are NHIs on steroids
– Organizational maturity with NHIs
– AI Agents as NHI accelerants

Whether you’re just starting your NHI and AI journey or building an advanced AI-driven identity strategy, this podcast is a must-listen.
