PRESS RELEASE

DALLAS, August 14, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Zimperium, the global leader in mobile security, is proud to announce that it has partnered with Okta, the leading independent identity provider, to deliver a significant advancement in identity threat protection for mobile devices. By integrating Zimperium Mobile Threat Defense (MTD) with Okta Identity Threat Protection with Okta AIcompanies are setting a new standard for continuous risk monitoring and enabling automated threat response, giving organizations unparalleled mobile security and on-device operational efficiency.

The sophistication and rapid evolution of modern mobile threats emphasize the need for constant monitoring and attention within a zero trust framework. Enterprise devices and the environments they operate in are constantly changing, requiring an active, runtime threat protection solution to always know the exact risk posture of the device. Zimperium’s industry-leading Mobile Threat Defense (MTD) product, designed to assess the full breadth of the mobile attack surface including device, network, application, and web threats, integrates real-time threat intelligence and rich threat context into the Okta Identity Threat Protection platform. This integration helps detect threats by continuously assessing and sharing the threat and risk posture of mobile devices, allowing shared customers to take action in real time when a threat is automatically detected.

Zimperium is one of the first providers of integration security events for Okta Identity Threat Protection with Okta AI. The integration provides real-time mobile threat and risk intelligence for managed and unmanaged devices, a core component of a zero trust architecture. By continuously sharing risk posture data with Okta, organizations have the insights they need to enforce strong identity and access controls and configure the service to automatically respond to threats. This represents a modern and necessary requirement for a strong zero trust architecture.

Identity threat protection for mobile devices

With this powerful integration, Zimperium’s industry-leading MTD solution seamlessly integrates with Okta’s Identity Threat Protection platform, giving organizations the following capabilities:

“Organizations need the ability to aggregate risk insights at the point of login and reevaluate them at any point in a user’s session,” said Stephen Lee, Vice President, Technical Strategy and Partnerships. “Identity Threat Protection extends Okta’s adaptive risk analysis and enables automated remediation and response capabilities, helping companies stop potential threats in real time. By integrating with Zimperium, we can extend our risk assessment across an attack surface that Okta doesn’t fully cover.”

“As organizations embrace new technologies, effective on-device security is more important than ever,” said Shridhar Mittal, CEO of Zimperium. “Our partnership with Okta enhances our ability to provide real-time protection against identity threats. Together, we’re empowering enterprises to stay ahead of evolving threats and maintain robust security postures. We encourage current Okta customers to explore these new security enhancements and strengthen their mobile security strategies.”

Okta Identity Threat Protection is built with Okta AI and driven by insights from across an organization’s security stack. In real time, it detects and responds to identity threats, depending on a customer’s service configuration, during and after authentication, amplifying security signal exchanges across the ecosystem and orchestrating remediation. The solution is now generally available to Workforce Identity Cloud customers globally.
