So this. If you're in a society where a response to "AI took my job" can be "I will have access to training for a different job and I won't starve, be homeless or die of something curable while I do it", you're likely to feel this is a disruptive change.
If none of those things are true for you it's going to feel apocalyptic and existential.
Related is probably cultural bias to "evil" or dangerous technology, particularly thinking machines, vs. benevolent partners, assistants or tools.
Great cultural-disconnect observation. It's more specific than that. Fighting for your survival against an unjust and immoral oppressor who wants to force you to do things you do not want.
Single Sign On (SSO) for all applications as the default. That will do 80%+ of what you want. Thycotic (Delinea) Secret Server for API keys, break-glass accounts, etc. If you have a more granular need for Privileged Access Management (PAM) there are enterprise tools for that. (I don't recommend BeyondTrust; I've heard CyberArk is decent but haven't used it.)
You could do a mid-roll-your-own with Bitwarden commercial, etc., though consider the operational management overhead.
I think you're in the U.S., and if so immediately freeze your credit so that they can't take out new credit in your name. They seem pretty motivated and they have a lot of your identity information. You can learn how to freeze and unfreeze your credit for free at https://www.nerdwallet.com/article/finance/how-to-freeze-cre....
Then pull all three of your credit reports to check for anomalies. You can do that for free at https://www.annualcreditreport.com. Right now you can do it for free every week. In non-pandemic times it's once a year. Do NOT agree to any upsells for additional features or protection to get your free report; it's not required to just get your reports.
Versions SHOULD be hidden from public queries. A proper assessment should identify versions anyway, by other means. If you hide them from your assessors to pass a scan, have Cyber insurance and later have an incident, coverage may be invalidated due to fraud (hiding data from assessor) or incompetence on the part of the assessor you hired.
Assessment teams have varying quality. Get the best results for your org you can out of them.
EAP Legal programs almost always have specific clauses preventing their use against the employer. Get your own lawyer. A prepaid legal plan can be a cost-effective way to start this.
If none of those things are true for you it's going to feel apocalyptic and existential.
