About Okta
Okta is where enterprise identity consolidated: single sign-on across thousands of pre-integrated apps, adaptive MFA, lifecycle automation that provisions and deprovisions accounts as people join and leave. Auth0, its developer arm, covers customer identity. High-profile security incidents tested trust and the company hardened accordingly. Per-user pricing across modules still adds up quickly.
