Okta

Okta + Opal Use Cases

Protect against breaches with least privilege

• Grant just-in-time access to Okta apps, groups, roles that are auto-expiring and fully audited using Slack

• Ensure that privileged roles have the appropriate identity governance and approval configurations, such as multi-stage approvals, max duration, custom fields, and more

Accelerate employee access on paved roads

• Enable resource owners with the most context to approve access requests and provision access automatically via Slack

• Accelerate employee onboarding by enabling managers to request on behalf of their reports or enabling self-service discovery of resource bundles

• Automate on-call access by provisioning and deprovisioning access via on-call schedules

Simplify compliance without manual overhead

• Automate user access reviews so compliance teams can snapshot user listings, assign reviewers to self-service reviews, propagate access changes, and generate an auditor-friendly access report

• Review access of employees who have recently transferred roles or departments

Okta Overview

Okta connects any person with any application on any device.

It's an enterprise-grade, identity management service, built for the cloud, but compatible with many on-premises applications. With Okta, IT can manage any employee's access to any application or device. Okta runs in the cloud, on a secure, reliable, extensively audited platform, which integrates deeply with on-premises applications, directories, and identity management systems.

Opal + Okta Integration Overview

Opal natively integrates with Okta, which enables employees to request for Apps, Roles, and Groups. In addition, Opal syncs with Okta as a source of truth for identity - importing users, organizational attributes, and their group mapping.
