Danny Brickman, co-founder and chief executive officer of Oasis Security, talks about the issue of non-human identities for cybersecurity at the Tech Innovation CUBEd Awards 2025 series. SECURITY

Why Oasis Security urges companies to secure non-human identities

The proliferation of bots has left companies vulnerable, with attacks significantly increasing in recent years due to the rise of generative AI models. Oasis Security Ltd. aims to change that by securing the non-human identities within an organization.

“Today, the simplest way to do a hack or an attack is just to log in,” said Danny Brickman (pictured), co-founder and chief executive officer of Oasis. “It’s so simple, and we found it even more simple in this new world that has changed, the infrastructure that has changed to be microservice-based, API-based, and … just skyrocketed in numbers to the point that we’re seeing today, 50 times more non-human identities than human identities.”

Brickman spoke with theCUBE’s Kristen Martin for the Tech Innovation CUBEd Awards 2025 interview series, during an exclusive broadcast on theCUBE, SiliconANGLE Media’s livestreaming studio. They discussed the double-edged sword that is AI in cybersecurity.

Governing interaction between non-human identities

The number of identities, human and non-human, that a business handles these days can be nearly impossible to manage without help, according to Brickman. Oasis employs Safe Secret Rotation, an automated solution for changing passwords on a regular basis and catalogs all protected information within an organization.

“Every organization today has a leaked secret, has something that can cause a massive breach, which turns those identities from being only identities to actually being real vulnerabilities for organizations,” Brickman said. “We need to actually come in and help organizations to reestablish, to rethink how identity is being secured [and] how identities are being secured in this modern world, in the world that is transitioning as fast as possible with the AI frontier.”

AI creates more vulnerabilities for organizations while also offering tools to protect them, according to Brickman. By automating machine-to-machine governance, Oasis aims to allow security and development velocity to move at the same pace (through measures such as Safe Secret Rotation) instead of trading off one for the other. For its innovations in cybersecurity, the company received a CUBEd “Rocketship” award.

“We actually were able to facilitate a layer out of this old data ingestion in AI processes,” Brickman said. “Helping the organization … to do the rotation, to do the commission of accounts that we used to do, to do complicated processes like vaulting accounts and changing the authentication patterns of a specific application for a machine and bringing this knowledge of governance to the new era of AI and cloud.”
