What is Okta Workforce Identity?

Okta is the category-defining cloud identity platform, providing single sign-on, multi-factor authentication, lifecycle management, and API access management. The Okta Integration Network has more than 7,000 pre-built app integrations, and the platform is trusted by roughly half of the Fortune 100. Okta has invested heavily in phishing-resistant authentication (FIDO2, passkeys) and adaptive access policies driven by device and behavior signals.

Best for: Enterprises with large SaaS portfolios needing a proven, broadly-integrated IAM backbone
