Extending Okta’s Capabilities with Sonet.io
In today's rapidly evolving digital landscape, maintaining robust security and seamless access control is paramount for organizations of all sizes. Okta simplifies the complex world of user authentication and authorization, offering Single Sign-On (SSO), Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA), user lifecycle management, and compliance solutions that streamline operations and fortify defenses. Users only need one login to access their Okta dashboard which provides them access to the SaaS applications they need to do their work, however if they want to access private web apps, desktop apps or servers they need to login to those separately. While Okta helps to ensure only authorized users have access to corporate applications, once a user is logged in, they are then able to undertake risky actions unless additional application security is applied, and there is a lack of visibility to see exactly actions users take once they’re using the applications. Organizations also need to think about risks involved with session hijacking when using a solution like Okta.
