Keyless Access

By NHI Mgmt Group Updated June 7, 2026 Domain: Authentication, Authorisation & Trust

Keyless access grants privileged access without distributing a reusable secret such as a password or SSH key. The control depends on identity, policy, and context at request time, which reduces secret sprawl and makes access easier to confine to a single session or task.
