Extend secure access globally with RadiantOne & Okta integration

Get Okta up and running across your entire ecosystem—including legacy and on-prem systems—quickly.

Benefits

Put good data to good use with RadiantOne and Okta integration

Okta manages access and governance; RadiantOne manages the identity data that fuels these processes. The combination speeds onboarding, reduces overhead, and minimizes risk.

Think of Radiant as a universal connector for distributed user information. No matter where it resides or in what format, RadiantOne can correlate and deliver all relevant data to Okta so secure access can be extended to all users and all systems.

  • Speed Okta deployment and simplify ongoing management with a single identity source
  • Integrate legacy applications with Okta without needing to refactor
  • Manage identity lifecycles across all systems, including on-prem and legacy
  • Deliver complete profiles for fine-grained authorizations
  • Evolve by extending Okta to new user populations and applications easily

Identity data is spread across diverse legacy, on-prem, and cloud sources, and integration is a specialized task best left to a dedicated layer. Without one, Okta's time-to-value is slowed by a complex and dispersed environment.

  • High cost of custom integrations to onboard new applications and add new user groups incurs additional expense and impedes business agility
  • Siloed systems prevent sharing of services across different groups—business units, geographic zones, third parties, etc.
  • Analytics-based risk and quality controls can’t be applied across all systems
  • Security best practices can’t be extended to all corners of the IT estate, including legacy and on-prem systems
BETTER TOGETHER: RADIANTONE + OKTA

Manage access and governance more efficiently

RadiantOne eliminates the need for costly and time-consuming integrations. Instead, it creates a single point of authentication and authorization for all applications and services. Leveraging RadiantOne as the “single source of truth” of identity data speeds onboarding and improves responsiveness to changing requirements. This not only simplifies the deployment process for Okta but also enables consistent access controls across the enterprise.

RadiantOne and Okta integration enables speedier deployment and reduction in ongoing maintenance burden.

With RadiantOne, easily integrate multiple data sources, including Active Directory, LDAP directories, databases, and cloud platforms like Okta. This allows for a comprehensive view of all identities within your organization — regardless of where they are located — to enhance access management and governance functions with organization-wide context in a fraction of the time.

How to enhance access management and governance with RadiantOne and Okta integration

What does RadiantOne bring to your Okta deployment? 

How many applications do you want to integrate with Okta?

Avoid repeated integration effort by building a re-usable, authoritative identity source.

How will Okta access on-prem identity data?

RadiantOne integrates across on-prem and cloud AD, HR, LDAP, DB’s, and more.

Is all user data (+ all attributes) accessible in one source?

Easily connect to and rationalize identity with RadiantOne to feed Okta enterprise-wide context.

Can you easily integrate with all legacy systems?

RadiantOne enables legacy applications to plug in to Okta without refactoring.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. I already have Okta. Why would I need RadiantOne?

Many organizations are challenged to implement access and governance solutions in the face of identity complexity without a single, authoritative source of up-to-date identity data. When that’s the case, key functionality and/or users can fall out of scope of the access solution. The goal is to adopt best practices across the entire identity estate. But transformation is especially difficult for legacy systems that aren’t extensible or don’t operate with modern protocols (and are, therefore, a challenge for Okta to integrate).  

RadiantOne handles the complex task of integration across on-prem, legacy, and cloud sources to build a single information point. RadiantOne handles the data management (extraction, ingestion, correlation, remapping, remodeling, etc.) rather than relying on action solutions (such as access management, governance, privileged access solutions) which are not specialized on data management—and which don’t offer universal connectivity—to re-use the integration effort across different vendors and projects.  

2. What does identity data management do for access management?

Identity data management addresses the data access and quality challenges that arise from a complex identity environment.

According to Gartner, “The majority of organizations adopting IAM capabilities limit themselves to the data management capabilities of their IAM technology vendors (IGA, AM, PAM). As built in data integration and data management capabilities are often insufficient for client needs, this frequently results in significant implementation and integration challenges—which slows the time to value delivery for many IAM programs.”

RadiantOne brings advanced data management capabilities to access management and governance solutions, allowing these systems to be deployed faster and managed more efficiently for faster time-to-value and reduced risk.

3. Okta integrates identity. How is RadiantOne integration different?

RadiantOne offers specialized data management capabilities delivered as a dedicated integration layer that can be used by Okta, as well as other solutions and projects, over and over. With advanced data extraction, transformation, correlation, and modeling capabilities, RadiantOne builds a global profile for each user from across multiple identity sources and provides a single source of identity truth which can be leveraged by any solution for authentication, authorization, and administration decisions. With RadiantOne organizations can continue to leverage existing investments—such as on-prem databases and Active Directories—without making changes to the underlying sources. This architecture avoids repeated integration efforts to more easily scale identity operations.  

4. What is an example of Okta leveraging RadiantOne to enable integration for legacy systems?

Many organizations have multiple access management solutions from different vendors and, without RadiantOne, enabling these systems to interoperate to extend access requires custom integration effort and workarounds.  

A large insurance company wanted to extend SSO for customers and employees to Docusign.  Customer data was managed by Okta, and employee data was in an on-prem Active Directory. 

To extend access for customers to Docusign, an attribute from Okta (UUID) was required by the access management solution, CA SSO– but CA SSO was not able to connect to Okta to get this data. RadiantOne virtualized the AD and Okta universal directory to deliver a single identity source containing UUID for both employees and customers to CA SSO, enabling seamless access for customers and workforce users to Docusign.
