Overview

Silverfort enables Okta users to seamlessly extend multi-factor authentication everywhere, across cloud environments and the corporate network, including traditionally hard-to-protect non-web systems and resources like homegrown and proprietary applications, IT infrastructure, and more. By combining Silverfort with Okta, customers can use Okta’s seamless and secure MFA experience for enforcing MFA and conditional access policies on assets they couldn’t protect until today. Silverfort and Okta connect via APIs, enabling Silverfort’s platform to trigger Okta’s MFA as needed, and provide a seamless user experience

The Challenge

The explosion of mobile and cloud technologies has dissolved the traditional network perimeter. As a result, organizations can no longer assume trust based on just a username and password or whether or not the user is on the corporate network. In this zero trust world, organizations need to protect all sensitive assets, across the corporate network and cloud environments, by enforcing MFA and conditional access policies. Enforcing this system-by-system can be a challenging task, sometimes even impossible. Now, Silverfort’s agentless authentication platform integrates directly with Okta to extend strong, adaptive multi-factor authentication (MFA) everywhere. Silverfort’s agentless architecture enables implementation of unified MFA and access policies across all resources and environments, without making any changes to your systems or networks.

The Solution

Silverfort monitors authentication protocols and access requests in real time, across an enterprise’s network and cloud environment, without decrypting the traffic. It analyzes the data and calculates risk using an AI-driven risk engine, applying policies to allow access, deny it, or require MFA. By combining Silverfort with Okta, customers can use Okta’s seamless and secure MFA experience for enhanced security based on enterprise policy. Silverfort and Okta connect via APIs, enabling Silverfort’s platform to trigger Okta’s MFA as needed. With Silverfort and Okta working together, enterprises get a secure authentication flow that doesn’t affect the client or server, and authorized end users get streamlined access to the resources they need.
