Okta – Identity and Access Management
Okta is an identity and access management (IAM) platform that helps organisations manage employee access to applications and systems. It includes capabilities such as Single Sign-On (SSO) and centralised user management to simplify and secure access across the organisation.
Key Features
-
Single Sign-On (SSO) for simple and secure authentication
-
Centralised identity management for employee access
-
Wide ecosystem of pre-built app integrations through the Okta Integration Network
How the Integration Helps You
The integration between Simployer One and Okta ensures that HR and IT operate from the same source of truth. When employee data is updated in Simployer One, the changes are automatically reflected in Okta, enabling smooth and automated management of user accounts and access across systems.
This approach is often referred to as HR as a Source (HRaaS), where the HR system serves as the primary data source throughout the employee lifecycle, from onboarding and role changes to offboarding.
Key Features of the Integration
-
Automatically sync key changes in employee and profile data from Simployer One to support IT processes
-
Reduce manual administration and the risk of incorrect access by linking identity management to HR events
-
Enable scalable lifecycle management across both cloud (SaaS) and on-premise systems
-
Support Single Sign-On (SSO) to Simployer One via SAML 2.0 when Okta is used as the identity provider
