The Okta Policy Playbook: Building Stronger Identity Controls

Okta policies are the foundation of identity security, but small configuration mistakes can create opportunities for attackers to bypass controls, weaken MFA enforcement, and gain persistent access. In this session, we'll examine the Okta policies that matter most in real-world environments, including Global Session Policies, Authentication Policies, and OAuth Authorization Policies, highlighting common misconfigurations, the attack paths they enable, and practical ways to harden them.

Attendees will learn actionable configuration recommendations and understand where security teams often need to balance security with operational requirements. You'll leave with practical guidance for reducing identity risk and strengthening your overall Okta security posture.
