Millions of people rely on Okta every day to securely connect with the technologies and services that let them do their most important work.

Modern identity security demands a fabric, not a firewall: Join us to see how the Okta Platform goes beyond basic authentication, providing the visibility, access control, and governance to orchestrate total, real-time protection for all identities—securing every access attempt before, during, and after authentication—making it the only intelligent security platform you'll ever need.

The Unified Front: Protecting All Digital Identities with One Okta Security Fabric

A single, holistic approach to identity can mitigate security threats, simplify compliance, and ultimately accelerate your business objectives.

In today's digital world, disjointed systems and manual processes aren't just inefficient—they're a significant risk. Inconsistent documentation and weak frameworks make it nearly impossible to keep up with evolving compliance requirements, leaving you vulnerable to security gaps.

Join Okta to learn how a unified strategy for identity governance and privileged access works to create a secure, streamlined, and compliant environment. Discover how to protect every identity—human or AI—and prove compliance with confidence.

Key Takeaways:
• Practical strategies for automating user provisioning and deprovisioning
• How Okta helps ensure least privilege access from day one
• How to maintain a complete, verifiable audit trail across your identities and infrastructure

The power of one: Integrating governance & compliance for business success

Proactively secure your organization's identity security

Identity is the foundation of modern security, yet sophisticated attacks continue to evolve—exploiting misconfigurations, hijacking sessions, and leveraging Identity sprawl to bypass traditional defenses. To stay ahead, organizations need a proactive, Identity-first security strategy.

Join us for an illuminating demo where our experts showcase how Okta's Identity Security Posture Management (ISPM) and Identity Threat Protection with Okta AI (ITP) help you provide the visibility and continuous protection you need—no matter your stack or security ecosystem.

In this session, you will learn how to:
- Uncover hidden risks by identifying shadow IT, privileged accounts without MFA, and lingering access
- Detect and respond to active threats in real-time, such as session hijacking
- Implement a comprehensive identity security strategy to protect your entire digital ecosystem

Don't wait for an identity breach to reveal your blind spots. Watch now to learn how to close identity security gaps.

Closing the gaps: Strengthen security posture & stop attacks

How well do you know your new colleagues?

While you're busy onboarding human colleagues, an army of non-human identities (NHIs) is silently proliferating, often with powerful access and limited oversight. Learn to identify and secure risky NHIs through our 'Guess Who' game—before they become your next breach.

Operating in the shadows, frequently with elevated privileges and minimal monitoring, NHIs represent a critical and vulnerable attack surface. This webinar provides the questions and strategies to control your NHI landscape, providing a proactive, investigative approach to identify vulnerabilities and secure these growing identities.

Every unknown identity is a potential breach waiting to happen. Let's find them first.
