Okta CTO Abhi Sawant on Securing Identity in the Age of AI
Details
The rise of AI and cloud services has led to a massive proliferation of identities, introducing significant new risks. Okta's CTO, Abhi Sawant, explains that since virtually all compromises target a user account, identity is the center of security.
Okta’s strategy is to extend control, governance, and visibility to both human and non-human identities, such as AI tools and autonomous agents. Key innovations include Identity Security Posture Management (ISPM), which uses AI and ML to detect all identities across your ecosystem, flag unknown risks, and provide remediation visibility.
Sawant highlights the importance of the Okta Identity Security Fabric for securing every user type and resource. Okta is also driving open standards—like IPSY and Cross-App Access—to ensure a vibrant, safer, and interoperable security ecosystem for all customers.
