Customer Identity is essential for optimizing the customer experience, driving sales and marketing efforts, and ensuring security and compliance. However, as businesses’ tech stacks and needs evolve, extensibility becomes a critical factor in selecting a CIAM (Customer Identity and Access Management) solution. This whitepaper explores:

• Why extensibility is crucial for adapting CIAM to unique business needs and tech environments.
• The role of Customer Identity in enhancing security, protecting data, and supporting compliance.
• How extensible CIAM solutions enable faster, more agile development while offloading identity management tasks.
• The trade-offs between ease of implementation and degree of extensibility in different CIAM approaches.

It also shares practical strategies to implement Customer Identity effectively, ensuring scalability and long-term success. Download the whitepaper now.

AI agents aren’t just chatting anymore, they’re taking action across your stack. They’re calling APIs, making decisions, and accessing sensitive data. However, most IAM systems were never designed for non-human actors.

This whitepaper breaks down what GenAI changes about Identity and what security, product, and development teams must rethink to stay secure and scalable.

Microsoft is making a massive push to the cloud. As a result, Office 365 is taking off. But in its complexity, Office 365 is unlike any other cloud app. Often this causes impactful deployment delays. Instead of relying on legacy tools Microsoft gives away, learn to remove the identity barriers for your Office 365 migration while building a foundation from which to launch your entire future cloud strategy.

This on-demand webinar discusses:

• The basic identity management requirements for an Office 365 deployment
• Microsoft’s existing identity management tools
• The role of identity management in building a diverse cloud strategy

This May 2016 Forrester report explores a landscape in which organizations in every industry are moving from cloud adoption to cloud creation and participation.

For most companies, Active Directory (AD) or LDAP and plays the central role in coordinating identity and access management policies. Directory integration typically serves as a "source of truth" for user identities, and it provides access control to on-premises resources such as networks, file servers, and web applications. A byproduct of the transition to cloud applications is the proliferation of separate user stores; each cloud application typically is rolled out independently and therefore has its own unique database of user credentials.

Read this whitepaper to learn how Okta eliminates the pitfalls that come with trying to build and manage multiple on-premises active directory integrations yourself.

You're moving towards Office 365 and you want true single sign-on for users. You also want to ensure authentication is directly tied back to the policies and user status in Active Directory. With Okta's lightweight agent, you can minimize your on-prem footprint as you move to the cloud. Zero servers and on-prem software to deploy, update and manage means lower TCO.

Microsoft made a massive push to the cloud in 2014, and as a result Office 365 is taking off. We’re seeing it in how Okta customers are using Okta to connect to Office 365 in increasing numbers. However, Office 365 is unlike any other cloud app in its complexity, and it is best for IT to plan and deploy solutions around identity and mobility management in concert with their Office 365 rollout to get maximum user adoption.

Forrester Consulting recently examined the total economic impact and potential return on investment (ROI) enterprises may realize by deploying On-Demand Identity and Access Management service. For this study, Forrester conducted an interview with one existing Okta customer. The analysis showed that Okta benefited the organization's IT staff with productivity savings from automated provisioning and deprovisioning and with reduction of service desk requests due to password resets and forgotten URLs. Users saw increased productivity because of improved access to applications from any device in any location. The analysis found that the interviewed organization of 1,100 employees experienced the risk-adjusted ROI, costs, and benefits shown in detail in this paper.

The adoption rate of Software as a Service (SaaS) applications has been dramatic. The tendency of SaaS applications to be siloed has made managing user access and authorization an increasing challenge. The task of onboarding users is a time-intensive, manual process that involves administrators across multiple departments, which can introduce risk. Additionally, in most enterprises, Microsoft Active Directory (AD) is the authoritative user directory that governs access to basic IT services such as email and file sharing. Read this whitepaper to learn the three different options for integrating Active Directory with your SaaS applications.

With the exploding adoption of software-as-a-service (SaaS) applications, enterprise IT is fundamentally changing. While on-demand services provide tremendous ROI, they also introduce new challenges that must be overcome to truly capitalize on their potential. Identity management problems such as controlling who is granted access to which applications and data and how to control access to these applications leveraging on premise directories such as Active Directory, have become increasingly important. Single Sign-On and user management solutions that are optimized for the cloud are necessary to help address these challenges. This whitepaper presents the eight biggest identity and access management (IAM) challenges associated with adopting and deploying cloud and SaaS applications, and discusses best practices for addressing each of them.
