TL;DR: Generative AI, multi-session fraud detection, facial biometrics and CUA visibility are changing how identity platforms are built, according to Transmit Security’s 2025 Mosaic Rewind. The deeper shift is that identity security is moving from static flows to continuously adapting controls, which raises governance demands across human IAM, fraud and non-human identity programmes.

NHIMG editorial — based on content published by Transmit Security: 2025 Mosaic Rewind Release Notes and platform update overview

By the numbers:

Questions worth separating out

Q: How should teams govern AI-assisted identity journeys without losing control?

A: Teams should treat AI-assisted journey design as change management, not self-service automation.

Q: Why is cross-session fraud detection more effective than single-event scoring?

A: Single-event scoring only sees one interaction, which is often enough to look legitimate.

Q: How can security teams spot automated behaviour inside human-looking sessions?

A: Use behavioural timing, interaction patterns and system-level cues to identify automation that is operating through a normal login or application session.

Practitioner guidance

  • Define approval boundaries for AI-assisted journey changes Treat generated identity and fraud flows as governed changes, with explicit review points for policy, step-up logic and exception handling before they reach production.
  • Correlate fraud evidence across sessions Retain session lineage for biometric, behavioural and document signals so repeated patterns can be detected instead of treating each verification as a standalone event.
  • Separate human proof from automated execution Add detection logic for computer-using agents and other automated actors that can operate inside apparently normal user sessions, especially where access decisions are session based.

Adaptive identity flows create a governance problem before they create a user experience benefit. When the system can generate journeys, tune rules and optimise outcomes from live signals, the control question shifts from configuration accuracy to policy drift. That is a different governance burden from traditional IAM, where rules are expected to remain stable long enough for review. Practitioners should treat AI-assisted flow design as a controlled change process, not a convenience feature.

A few things that frame the scale:

  • 92% of organisations expose NHIs to third parties, raising concerns about supply chain security, according to Ultimate Guide to NHIs.
  • Only 20% have formal processes for offboarding and revoking API keys, and even fewer have procedures for rotating them, according to Ultimate Guide to NHIs.

A question worth separating out:

Q: What should organisations check before relying on adaptive identity platforms in regulated environments?

A: They should verify that the platform’s authentication model, policy controls and audit trail meet the standards expected for the sector. For regulated use cases, protocol alignment and traceability matter as much as feature breadth. If the system cannot prove how decisions were made, governance will be weak regardless of automation quality.
