The Non-Human & AI Identity Journal – Edition 65

Welcome to the latest edition of our Non-Human & AI Identity Journal, where we cover:

🎙 NHI Mgmt Group At Identiverse

Opening Remarks: The Non-Human and AI Identity Summit IDV 2026

The wait is over – the 8 sessions from the biggest Non-Human & AI Identity Summit of 2026, hosted by our NHI Mgmt Group in partnership with CyberRisk Alliance at Identiverse, Las Vegas, are being released. We are starting this week by sharing the Opening Remarks by Mr NHI. At 7:10, Mr NHI performs a rap video on NHIs and Agentic AI.

With over 250 in the room, Mr NHI put the audience to the test with questions straight from the Non-Human & AI Identity Podcast:
• Are Agentic AI identities a completely new class of identity?
• How many organisations are actively tackling NHI risks today?
• How many have already deployed agents into their environment?
• Will the agentic workforce lead to mass unemployment? (Mr NHI’s job may depend on the answer 😄)

The answers will surprise you — watch here to find out where the industry really stands.

🚨 Recent NHI & Identity Security Breaches

Miasma and Hades: Self-Propagating Supply Chain Worms Hit npm, PyPI and Azure

In June 2026, the Miasma and Hades worms exploited npm and PyPI by self-propagating through developer machines, stealing publishing tokens to republish infected packages. This automated credential exploitation rapidly spread across packages and repositories, including 73 Azure GitHub repositories. The breach highlights the critical need to secure machine identities and credentials, as their compromise can enable rapid, widespread supply-chain attacks.
