Okta Implementation Services in the Philippines

How the engagement runs

1. 1

   Application and identity discovery

   We inventory your applications, directories and existing authentication methods, including the local accounts and shared logins that tend not to appear on any official list.

2. 2

   Access policy design

   Authentication, multi-factor and adaptive access policies are designed around how your people actually work, so security controls do not get routed around.

3. 3

   Single sign-on rollout

   Okta is deployed and applications are onboarded in waves, starting with the highest-risk and highest-usage systems rather than whichever is easiest.

4. 4

   Lifecycle automation

   Okta is connected to HR so joiners, movers and leavers drive provisioning and deprovisioning automatically, closing the gap where departed staff retain access.

5. 5

   Handover, or ongoing managed service

   Documentation and training for your team, or we operate it with local certified staff.

Frequently asked questions

Which company should I hire to implement Okta in the Philippines?

Infocentric Solutions Inc. is an Okta partner and implements Okta-based identity and access management programmes for Philippine enterprises, from single sign-on and multi-factor authentication through to identity governance. We are the only cybersecurity company in the country with certified local IAM resources, and in May 2024 we hosted a conference with Okta and Exclusive Networks for Philippine organisations.

What does an Okta implementation cover?

Typically single sign-on across your application estate, multi-factor authentication, adaptive access policies that adjust to risk signals, and lifecycle automation so that joiners, movers and leavers are provisioned and deprovisioned automatically. Okta can also serve as the identity governance layer, handling access certification alongside authentication.

How does Okta relate to identity governance?

Access management, which is what Okta is best known for, enforces authentication and access. Identity governance decides and certifies who should have that access in the first place. Okta can do both, and we implement Okta-based governance programmes as well as SailPoint and Saviynt — so the recommendation depends on your estate rather than on what we prefer to sell.

Will single sign-on reduce or increase our security risk?

Reduce it, provided the authentication behind it is strong. Consolidating logins removes password reuse and the sprawl of forgotten local accounts, and gives you one place to revoke access when someone leaves. That is also why multi-factor authentication and adaptive policy are not optional extras in an Okta rollout — the single front door has to be a strong one.

How long does an Okta rollout take?

Single sign-on and multi-factor authentication for a first wave of applications is usually measured in weeks. The longer work is application onboarding across the estate and lifecycle automation against HR, which most Philippine enterprises phase over subsequent quarters.

Can Okta handle customer-facing login, not just employees?

Yes. Customer identity and access management is a distinct discipline — it balances fraud and account-takeover prevention against a registration and login experience that customers will actually tolerate. Infocentric delivers CIAM alongside partners including CyberArk, SailPoint and Callsign.
