Today we’re excited to announce that Okta has received Moderate certification in the Federal Risk and Authorisation Management Program (FedRAMP). Okta’s achievement of the FedRAMP certification enables federal agencies to adopt cloud applications that simplify identity management. In addition, the achievement allows Okta customers to inherit the security controls from Okta’s authority to operate. Customers can demonstrate that access control requirements for their employees are met, and reduce the amount of work needed for their own authority to operate. The FedRAMP process is simplified for partners and customers that use Okta within their own applications. FedRAMP provides a standard approach for assessing, authorizing and continuous monitoring of cloud products and services. To receive accreditation, Okta demonstrated an advanced level of security compliance and technical proficiency across over 300 controls including vulnerability management, incident response capability, and business continuity. The certification is reinforced by Okta customers and launch partners.
