Multi-Factor Authentication for Apps

Security solutions don’t work if people don’t use them. If end users find accessing apps to be too complex or burdensome, they will be less productive or turn to shadow IT to get their jobs done. Okta has designed a strong authentication solution that excels at both security and user convenience.

Define policies for user access to your app. Use a variety of adaptive factors, such as network, geography, historical usage, and user data when defining access decisions. You can tailor the policies to individuals or groups, requiring more stringent tokens for higher-security users.

When you're working with organizations with different MFA preferences, don’t let limited options hold you back. Okta supports multiple authentication factors. Our easy-to-use MFA mobile app supports both push-based and soft-token verification methods. Okta can also support out-of-band solutions like SMS and third-party MFA products like RSA, Symantec, and Google Authenticator.

Okta's analytics and reporting give you a clear picture of users' access and authentication patterns. You can use the data you get from MFA attempts to build more secure UX into your products.
