Okta provides cloud-based identity and access management services that authenticate users, manage permissions, and enable secure single sign-on across applications and devices.
Okta is an identity and access management (IAM) platform designed to securely connect people to the technologies they need to work. It centralizes authentication, authorization, and user management across cloud, mobile, and on-premises applications, helping organizations reduce security risk while simplifying access for employees, partners, and customers. By placing identity at the core of IT and security strategies, Okta enables consistent, policy-driven control over who can access which resources and under what conditions.
Key capabilities include Single Sign-On (SSO) with a large pre-built integration network, adaptive Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA), and lifecycle management that automates user provisioning and deprovisioning across systems. Okta’s Universal Directory provides a centralized, flexible user store that can integrate with existing directories such as Active Directory and LDAP. The platform supports modern identity standards like SAML, OpenID Connect, and OAuth 2.0, and offers robust APIs for building secure authentication and authorization into custom applications. With Auth0 by Okta, organizations can implement customer identity and access management (CIAM) tailored to consumer-facing apps, including features such as social logins, passwordless authentication, and advanced security controls.
