Okta Strengthens Enterprise Security with Identity Security Fabric to Safeguard AI-Driven Workflows

Okta, a global leader in identity and access management (IAM), has unveiled groundbreaking innovations designed to protect the AI-driven enterprise from the growing threat of cyber fraud, AI-powered impersonation, and digital identity theft. With AI adoption accelerating across industries, organisations face rising risks from misconfigured or unmanaged AI agents, deepfakes, and fraudulent access attempts. Okta’s new Identity Security Fabric promises to deliver a unified layer of security to close these gaps.

The latest upgrades to the Okta Platform and Auth0 Platform enable enterprises to build secure, standards-first AI agents that can seamlessly integrate into workflows. These agents can issue and verify tamper-proof digital credentials, establish digital trust, and provide complete lifecycle management for every identity—human and non-human. This approach helps protect against the misuse of AI-powered bots, credential theft, and fraudulent access attempts.

With 91% of organisations already using AI agents but only 10% having governance strategies in place, Okta is addressing an urgent gap. By embedding identity security, access control, and authorisation into AI systems, the platform ensures compliance, scalability, and resilience. Industry analysts note that this fabric-based security model aligns with Gartner’s prediction that identity fabric immunity principles will prevent 85% of new cyberattacks by 2027.

In an era where digital transformation, cloud adoption, and AI integration are reshaping enterprises, Okta’s identity-first approach delivers the holistic protection needed to secure sensitive data, prevent fraud, and empower businesses to innovate safely. By combining zero trust security, AI governance, and identity protection, Okta positions itself as a key enabler of trust in the next phase of enterprise AI.
