Strengthen security across a hybrid network with Adaptive MFA everywhere

Ensure comprehensive regulatory compliance

Industry compliance standards like HIPAA and PCI DSS demand a robust MFA solution that may be incompatible with older or homegrown or legacy apps and resources in your environment. Okta + Palo Alto Networks lets you deploy strong Adaptive MFA across the network, keeping the enterprise in compliance by protecting apps that need it but don’t natively support it.

Keep management tools and processes safe

SysAdmins typically need to access and control a variety of firewalls, servers, databases, and other critical infrastructure. These administrative accounts must remain secure at all times, but authenticating separately for them impedes workflow efficiency. Okta + Palo Alto Networks enables your security team to safely authenticate once and manage globally, giving you peace of mind.
