14      Site-wide defaults, and the only head a JS-less reader gets on a route that
15      has not been prerendered. Every tag that src/components/SEO.tsx also emits
16      carries data-rh="true", which is the attribute react-helmet-async stamps on
17      the tags it owns: marking them here lets a page's <SEO> replace these rather
18      than append a second copy, so a post's own canonical and social card are the
19      only ones in the document. Adding a tag below that SEO.tsx does not emit
20      means marking it would delete it on every page, so leave those unmarked.

Analysts describe this category as an Identity Visibility and Intelligence Platform (IVIP); Hydden goes further with a write path back into the identity stack.</p></div><div class="rounded-2xl border border-[#E9E9E9] bg-white p-6 lg:p-7 shadow-sm"><h3 class="text-lg font-bold text-[#00122b] mb-2">What does Hydden do?</h3><p class="text-[#5B5F7D] leading-relaxed">Hydden delivers three things on one platform: Discovery finds every identity across cloud, on-premises, SaaS, and air-gapped systems; Observability streams every identity change in real time; and Control automates access reviews, policy enforcement, and lifecycle orchestration on clean, live data. Together they let security teams spend time on real risk instead of manual operations.</p></div><div class="rounded-2xl border border-[#E9E9E9] bg-white p-6 lg:p-7 shadow-sm"><h3 class="text-lg font-bold text-[#00122b] mb-2">How is Hydden different from IGA and PAM tools?</h3><p class="text-[#5B5F7D] leading-relaxed">Hydden is not a replacement for IGA, PAM, or ITDR tools. It sits beneath them as the authoritative data layer they run on, discovering the accounts those tools miss and feeding every workflow clean, correlated, real-time identity data. Hydden complements leading platforms and is a Idira Discovery Partner.</p></div><div class="rounded-2xl border border-[#E9E9E9] bg-white p-6 lg:p-7 shadow-sm"><h3 class="text-lg font-bold text-[#00122b] mb-2">Is Hydden only a non-human identity tool?</h3><p class="text-[#5B5F7D] leading-relaxed">No. Hydden covers the full identity landscape: human accounts, service accounts, machine credentials, API keys, OAuth tokens, and AI agents. Non-human identity governance is one part of a broader platform, not the whole product.</p></div><div class="rounded-2xl border border-[#E9E9E9] bg-white p-6 lg:p-7 shadow-sm"><h3 class="text-lg font-bold text-[#00122b] mb-2">Where is Hydden located?</h3><p class="text-[#5B5F7D] leading-relaxed">Hydden, Inc. is headquartered in Washington, DC, at 1701 Rhode Island Ave NW, 4th Floor, Washington, DC 20036.</p></div></div></div></section><section data-theme="light" class="py-12 sm:py-16 lg:py-20 bg-white relative overflow-hidden text-center"><div class="absolute inset-0 texture-mesh
