## AI overview

The article argues that DevSecOps teams are moving away from passwords and shared SSH keys toward passwordless infrastructure access, including short-lived identity-based certificates. It cites survey findings about certificate adoption and the importance companies place on passwordless access, zero-trust networks, and just-in-time access.
