Okta for AI Agents GA April 30: Secure Agentic Enterprise Blueprint with First-Class Agent Identities
Okta announced 'Okta for AI Agents' will be generally available April 30, 2026, providing a framework for enterprises to manage AI agents as first-class identities alongside human users. This includes authentication, authorization, and governance for autonomous agents interacting across enterprise systems. The timing aligns with Descope's Agentic Identity Hub 2.0 ($88M total funding) and Reco's $85M for AI SaaS security — confirming that AI agent identity management is crystallizing as a distinct enterprise category, not a feature bolted onto existing IAM products.
