SAN FRANCISCO – November 28, 2023 – Okta, Inc. (NASDAQ: OKTA), the leading independent Identity provider, today announced that it has been recognized as a Leader in the 2023 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Access Management for the seventh consecutive year.

The Gartner view of the market is focused on transformational technologies or approaches delivering on the future needs of end users. Gartner defines access management (AM) as tools that establish, enforce and manage journey-time access controls to cloud, modern standards- based web and legacy web applications. The report evaluated nine vendors on 15 criteria and placed Okta in the Leaders Quadrant.

Okta provides the breadth of modern Workforce and Customer Identity and Access Management solutions to accelerate a world where everyone can safely use any technology. The Okta Identity Platform delivers identity solutions that are designed and built for ease of use, neutrality, customizability, and reliability, enabling customers to innovate freely, enhance operational excellence, and build lasting relationships.
