Meet Our New Product Series: The Food Machine Production Line

2021-07-30

In our inaugural issue, we explored Custom URL Domains, allowing Okta admins to configure an Okta org with a custom domain for a branded, custom sign-in experience.

Automations

For our second edition of The food machine production line, went back to the future with Automations. Automations impacts three areas that make the lives of admins and IT teams easier: security issues, audit and compliance requirements, and IT productivity.

The LDAP Interface

For our third edition we explored a hybrid IT game changer: the LDAP Interface. This feature allows orgs to seamlessly migrate certain apps off of legacy LDAP or Active Directory servers and onto Okta—for a full-cloud experience.

The Administrator Console

In this edition we profiled a feature that all Okta admins are intimately familiar with—the Administrator Console. But are you sure you know all that it can do? We shared some new resources, and spotlighted two features that every admin role can benefit from knowing: the EA Feature Manager and Admin Roles.

Workday as a Master

This edition of The Production Line introduced a topic that called for not one, but two posts: HR-driven provisioning. Starting with Workday, this and the following edition zero'd in on this key feature of Okta Lifecycle Management (LCM).

HR as a Master

This was part deux of our mini-series about HR-driven provisioning. And, while Okta has a number of pre-built options including Namely, BambooHR, UltiPro, and SuccessFactors, we revealed how we also allow for CSV mastering.

HealthInsight

In this edition, we stayed timely with HealthInsight, a feature we had just demoed at our Showcase event. Offered in a suite of features called SecurityInsights, it monitors the configurations of your Okta org and delivers tailored recommendations, based on both industry practices and Okta’s practices for our products.

Device Trust

In our latest edition, we profiled Device Trust, an ambitious feature, bent on solving the problems to be found in the future of work. If you're using solutions like VMware Workspace ONE, System Center Configuration Manager, Jamf Pro and others, you can utilize Okta Device Trust to ensure that mobile devices and desktops are managed by these solutions before your end users access Okta managed apps.
