OKTA can bolster your Azure-based security ecosystem with passwordless capabilities, and the Azure IAM consulting firm is now offering comprehensive OKTA implementation services.
Among the most common pieces of advice from cybersecurity professionals is to change your passwords constantly, and to implement robust MFA systems to keep personal and business-related data safe. However, despite the fact that this has been repeated ad nauseam for almost 2 decades by every cybersecurity professional on earth, over 50% of all small and medium-sized businesses have NO multi-factor authentication whatsoever, relying entirely on passwords to manage access to their network.

It is clear that the industry needed a wake-up call, one that it received in the form of an unprecedented recent security breach that exposed untold billions of accounts and records in January 2024. This breach has led many experts to suggest that password-protected systems should no longer be used at all, particularly when it comes to government agencies and multinational companies.
That's right - we could be looking at a total retirement of password-based systems in the coming years, and frankly, good riddance. Passwords are far and away the most common point of failure for companies of all sizes, and they are the reason that cybercrime is now a trillion-dollar industry.
Thankfully, the technology required to cut passwords out of your security ecosystem is already available, and if you are interested in a custom implementation, Azure IAM is your best bet.
Their consulting service specializes in Microsoft Azure, which can be used to facilitate cutting-edge passwordless systems such as those made possible by OKTA and others.
Thanks to a mutual basis on SAML 2.0, OKTA can easily be integrated into security ecosystems that use Azure and, in particular, Azure Active Directory, as the basis for their cybersecurity operations. When combined, those two powerful software solutions can be used to create cloud-based, passwordless access management systems with virtually no upper limit on network size.
When establishing passwordless environments for your company or organization, Azure IAM is capable of using a wide range of first and third-party software implementations. They have access to Microsoft’s full suite of security products as official partners to the company, as well as many independently developed add-ons, including OKTA and others.
In addition to OKTA implementation, the firm is capable of building out expansive, multi-platform systems under the same security protocol. This allows your administrators to track individual users across multiple accounts without introducing additional redundant security checks along with way.
A spokesperson for the firm stated, “We architect, design, and implement secured Identity systems for the public and private sectors, the states, and the federal government. Our solution spans from the on-premise data centers to the cloud. We have the expertise to accompany you in your quest to establish a digitally trusted identity system while staying compliant with the laws that regulate your industry.”
The firm itself is owned and operated by a pair of seasoned cybersecurity experts with over 50 years of combined experience in the identity management space. They are certified in all modern cybersecurity software published by Microsoft, and a variety of other compatible options as well.
