Okta Blog·medium signal

Okta's platform for securing AI agents is now in early access, with GA set for April 30. Key capabilities include Shadow AI Agent Discovery (automatically detects when employees connect unauthorized AI agents to corporate apps), expansion of Universal Directory to treat agents as first-class identities with lifecycle management, and instant token revocation. With 88% of organizations reporting suspected or confirmed AI agent security incidents but only 22% treating agents as independent identity-bearing entities, Okta is positioning agent identity as the new enterprise security perimeter.
