Hush Security provides a secretless access management platform that replaces static machine credentials with just‑in‑time, policy‑driven authentication across hybrid cloud, on‑prem, and container environments. The solution continuously discovers non‑human identities and enforces runtime policies via eBPF probes and API connectors, delivering real‑time visibility, risk‑based posture scores, and audit logs for security and compliance teams.

Problem
Enterprises rely on static secrets—hard‑coded passwords, API keys, and service‑account credentials—to authenticate machines and automated workloads. These secrets require constant rotation, generate operational overhead, and present a large attack surface when they are leaked or misused. As cloud, on‑prem, and AI‑driven environments expand, hidden service accounts and undocumented access paths make it difficult to assess and control non‑human identity risk.
Solution
Hush Security delivers a secretless access management platform that replaces static credentials with just‑in‑time, policy‑driven authentication for all machine identities. The system continuously discovers every non‑human identity, secret, and access relationship across hybrid environments, providing real‑time visibility into how workloads communicate. By enforcing policies at runtime through lightweight eBPF and API‑based connectors, the platform grants the minimum required permissions only when needed, eliminating standing privileges. Integrated telemetry is analyzed to generate risk‑based posture scores, enabling security teams to prioritize and remediate threats based on actual impact. The same framework secures AI agents and autonomous workloads, ensuring each action is authenticated, scoped, and auditable without manual secret management.
Target Audience
The primary customers are security and compliance teams, DevOps engineers, and platform owners in enterprises that run hybrid cloud, on‑prem, and AI‑driven workloads and need to secure machine identities at scale.
Features
- Just‑in‑time policy engine that issues short‑lived credentials based on contextual rules, removing the need for secret rotation
- Continuous discovery engine that inventories non‑human identities, secrets, and access paths across cloud, on‑prem, and containerized workloads
- Real‑time runtime monitoring using eBPF probes and API connectors to enforce policies and terminate unauthorized activity instantly
- Risk‑based posture management dashboard that aggregates telemetry into actionable scores and prioritizes remediation
- AI‑agent access control module that authenticates, scopes, and logs every autonomous action with dynamic policies
- Seamless integration with existing CI/CD pipelines, orchestration tools, and secret stores via lightweight agents, requiring no code changes
- End‑to‑end encryption and audit logging for compliance reporting and forensic analysis
