Discover NHIs across infrastructure and environments

Parse configuration files, logs, APIs, and Infrastructure‑as‑Code to identify embedded or hard‑coded credentials
Enrich NHI metadata including ownership, purpose, environment, and lifecycle state
Partner with engineering teams to automate NHI hygiene activities such as ownership validation, lifecycle tracking, and reporting
