FAQ
Most common questions and answers we receive in Okta's projects
Can I integrate multiple ACTIVE DIRECTORYs?
That’s right, with Universal Directory we can integrate as many active source directories – AD or LDAP – as we want.
There is no need for company mergers or trust relationships between different domains.
Which applications does it integrate with?
Natively integrates with more than 6,000 applications, including cloud, on-premise and hybrid apps.
It is also possible to create a customised connector for any application, using SAML or SWA authentication standards.
Can I use an already purchased MFA solution in Okta?
Yes, no problem. In addition to Okta Verify which is the free native tool provided by this manufacturer. If you already have an MFA tool in your organisation, you can also integrate it into this solution.
Different types of additional MFA validation are supported: SMS, voice call, email, DUO Security, Google Authenticator, Symantec VIP, RSA SecurID or U2F FIDO tokens (Yubikey or Titan Security Key).
CAN I DELEGATE APP PROVISION TO HR?
Indeed, this comprehensive product is designed to make life easier at all levels. One of the use cases is precisely to delegate the provisioning part (Lifecycle Management) to the HR department.
In this way, HR can assign applications when the employee is hired or, on the contrary, automatically remove accesses when the employee leaves the company.
How much does Okta cost?
Okta is licensed per number of users on an annual subscription basis.
Each module has a cost per user. The approximate minimum annual cost is $1,500. That is, about $125 per month per user.
Does it INCLUDE logging and auditing of logins?
Of course. Okta records all user and administrator activity. You will have a complete audit where you can view details such as source IP, geographical area, device used, login method used, action taken, security policy applied, etc.
It also has a section where you can schedule custom reports.
use cases
MERGER OR ACQUISITION OF COMPANIES
If your company has merged with another company or has acquired one or more companies, with Okta you can have a centralised point of management and authentication of your users.
Okta allows you to unify all your active directories and also the authentication of all your applications or services, whether they are onprem or Cloud.
DELEGATION TO HRH TO PROVIDE APPLICATIONS
Simplify the provision of applications when users join your company. This task can of course be delegated to HR.
Likewise, when the employee leaves, you can automate the termination of the employee and access to information.
MULTI-FACTOR AUTHENTICATION
The password is no longer a secure element of authentication. Add a simple, secure and strong two-factor authentication with Okta.
