Device Identity and Access Organization
The Device Identity and Access organization is at the forefront of Okta’s Zero Trust vision. As a foundational pillar within Okta Research and Development (ORD), our mission is to transform the device itself into a secure, trusted, and effortless identity factor. We are the teams responsible for ensuring users can seamlessly interact with their work from any endpoint, anywhere in the world.
We engineer the end-to-end device experience—from our flagship FastPass, Okta Device Access (ODA), and Device Assurance. Our teams own the continuous authentication pipeline, device lifecycle management, and the sophisticated cloud services that analyze real-time trust and assurance signals to make frictionless, passwordless access a reality across Windows, macOS, iOS, Linux and Android.
Our organization is comprised of engineers who thrive at the intersection of deep client-side platform engineering and massive-scale distributed systems. The work we do secures millions of enterprise endpoints globally, prevents modern identity attacks, and fundamentally changes how people work by making world-class security completely invisible to the end user.
