Protect against identity-based attacks by sharing Cloudflare user risk scores with Okta
Cloudflare One, our secure access service edge (SASE) platform, is introducing a new integration with Okta, the identity and access management (IAM) vendor, to share risk indicators in real-time and simplify how organizations can dynamically manage their security posture in response to changes across their environments.
For many organizations, it is becoming increasingly challenging and inefficient to adapt to risks across their growing attack surface. In particular, security teams struggle with multiple siloed tools that fail to share risk data effectively with each other, leading to excessive manual effort to extract signals from the noise. To address this complexity, Cloudflare launched risk posture management capabilities earlier this year to make it easier for organizations to accomplish three key jobs on one platform:
Evaluating risk posed by people by using first-party user entity and behavior analytics (UEBA) models
Exchanging risk telemetry with best-in-class security tools, and
Enforcing risk controls based on those dynamic first- and third-party risk scores.
Today’s announcement builds on these capabilities (particularly job #2) and our partnership with Okta by enabling organizations to share Cloudflare’s real-time user risk scores with Okta, which can then automatically enforce policies based on that user’s risk. In this way, organizations can adapt Continue reading
