Credential theft, account takeover and user account attacks shouldn't work anymore, but they sure do. In fact, in 2024 identity-based attacks were the #1 attack vector behind corporate security breaches. Cybercriminal don’t break in, they log in, and it’s become clear that Okta and other traditional identity management systems are not equipped to stop them.
Identity Threat Detection and Response (ITDR) has emerged as the solution category to address this gap, and Verosint provides ITDR capabilities differentiated by its real-time ability to detect and stop attacks and the depth of its identity intelligence signals and behavioral analytics to detect the most advanced attacks.
Identity infrastructure such as Okta, Ping and Forgerock do many things well, such as establishing authentication and authorization policies and workflows for step-up authentication rules to prevent access to critical resources. However, a key set of capabilities where traditional IAM has lagged behind is proactively detecting a threat or attack.
Increasingly today, identity-based threats must be addressed in near real-time, since the amount of time it takes for a cybercriminal to breach a user account and then move laterally within an organization to inflict harm is measured in minutes; not week or months, which is how long it takes to analyze traditional IAM or SIEM logs manually to investigate and correlate suspicious events and then take action.
Identity Threat Detection and Response bridges this gap by providing the necessary behavioral analytics, identity intelligence, threat signals, and AI-driven real-time detection capabilities to stop threats and attacks before they can cause downstream harm.
These identity-based attacks, such as credential stuffing, account takeovers, insider threats, and more, exploit a traditional IAM system’ limitations and require an ITDR solution to proactively stop them by:
ITDR solutions should seamlessly integrate with the organization’s identity provider (IdP) to access real-time data, enforce policies, and enhance visibility. The combination of Verosint and Okta deliver on this requirement by leveraging simple APIs for implementation such that comprehensive account observability and threat detection can be enabled in just 5 minutes.
Many organizations recognize how critical it is to shore up identity security. When it comes to implementing a comprehensive solution that is also easy to implement and maintain, combining Verosint’s advanced threat detection capabilities with Okta’s leading identity management platform offers a best-in-class identity protection and security.
Comprehensive IAM Capabilities - Okta is a leader in identity and access management (IAM). Okta’s platform supports single sign-on (SSO), multi-factor authentication (MFA), lifecycle management, and API access management, ensuring a seamless and secure user experience.
Real-Time Identity Event Data - Okta provides granular visibility into authentication events, user behaviors, and access patterns, making it a critical data source for ITDR systems.
A Scalable and Flexible IAM Solution - Designed to integrate with thousands of applications and systems, Okta scales effortlessly to meet the needs of organizations of all sizes.
Zero Trust Alignment for Continuous Verification - Okta’s approach aligns with Zero Trust principles, ensuring that every access request is continuously verified.
Real-Time Behavioral Analysis - Verosint real-time identity graphs dynamically map relationships between users, devices, and behaviors. This enables precise detection of anomalies such as unusual login locations, compromised accounts, or high-risk interactions.
Identity and Threat Intelligence - Verosint combines Okta’s identity data with external risk signals and behavioral analytics to provide a comprehensive view of potential threats. This layered approach ensures that no threat goes unnoticed.
Automated Security Workflows - Verosint integrates seamlessly with Okta to enforce automated responses, such as locking compromised accounts, prompting step-up authentication, or notifying administrators of high-risk activity.
Comprehensive User Account Visibility and Dashboards - Verosint provides unified account observability at your fingertips, such that searching through event and security logs becomes a thing of the past. By analyzing identity patterns across individual users and the entire user base, Verosint uncovers hidden risks and trends that static logging systems cannot detect.
Combining Verosint and Okta can create Day 1 value by providing unified user account visibility and threat detection immediately after connecting via API. Here are some of the benefits that organizations receive shortly after implementation:
In the battle against identity-based threats, combining Verosint and Okta offers unparalleled advantages. Okta provides the secure identity foundation every organization needs, while Verosint delivers intelligent ITDR capabilities to detect and respond to threats in real time.
Together, they create a scalable and proactive security solution that empowers organizations to stay ahead of evolving cyber risks.
If you’re ready to elevate your ITDR and security strategy, Verosint and Okta are the perfect partners to help you achieve your goals. Contact us for a personalized demonstration today.
