"We used to require password changes every 12 weeks, which our employees strongly disliked. This also opens up security risks, because employees start choosing weaker passwords or writing them down. Now that we have Multi-Factor Authentication with Okta, we can extend this policy to a year. That means less work …

“An identity-first approach allows us to make sure our production systems have the right controls when it comes to permissions, access management, and privilege management, and it also lets us be more proactive about risks."

"The automation of processes with Okta has made my team more productive, and our access management is also more reliable. The time it takes for an employee to become operational has been reduced, which makes it easier for our company to grow."

"Okta was a game-changer for us. Having an authentication platform that you can easily integrate with greatly accelerates the underlying system you’re trying to build."

“Very little of what we did was invented at T-Mobile. We’ve been very fortunate to partner with a number of companies that made sure our transformation actually delivered on the promises of the technology.”

"Time-to-market was a security risk. The longer it took for us to onboard applications, the more people looked for alternate solutions. They created their own siloed credential stores, so we couldn’t monitor things or apply policies holistically.”

“Over a 36-hour period, we moved Workday, Office 365, Webex, ServiceNow, Salesforce, Check Point VPN, and Zoom to Okta.”

“It was a Whack-A-Mole game, from a security perspective. Each one of those separate IAM solutions was an opportunity to get the configuration wrong.”

"We have been able to deploy more than 120,000 users across 60 countries in less than six months. Our partnership with Okta was essential to get that done."

"Okta has been an amazing partner throughout this process, including answering a lot of questions, helping us get things accomplished, and providing good continuity as people have transitioned into this team. Okta’s knowledge transfer as we've moved through the process has been outstanding, too."

“We use Okta to decide who gets access to certain apps, data, or systems. With Okta, we know who is requesting access, and whether or not they're using a device we can trust.”

“Without a product like Okta, you really can’t achieve that Zero Trust model.”

“We’ve never had a server farm where we run Microsoft Active Directory or LDAP More and more, Okta is our directory for everything.”

“In our security department, we leave things better for end users than when we started. Any solution needs to make things easier. If it’s very hard or extremely complex, then we look for a better solution.”

“This decentralized model of support and service is key for us. On the central team, we have a lot to learn from our local colleagues, who face many different configurations, situations, constraints, and agendas.”
