About
Okta is an identity and access management company that secures access for employees, customers and AI agents. It was co-founded in 2009 by Todd McKinnon and Frederic Kerrest as an Identity-as-a-Service (IDaaS) provider. Its offering is split between the Okta Platform, which covers workforce and customer identity, and the Auth0 platform, which developers use to add sign-up, login and authentication to customer-facing apps. Auth0 features include fraud protection at login, self-service organisation management for B2B SaaS, and tools that give AI agents verifiable identities, including authorisation for Model Context Protocol (MCP) tools. Okta also runs Okta Ventures, which invests in startups working on identity, security and privacy.
