The 14-year-old company and single sign-on market share leader announced this month that it is adding a key element of visibility, the Security Center, to its Auth0-powered Okta Customer Identity Cloud.

The Security Center dashboard is designed to give near real-time asset visibility to teams focused on customer identity, user experience and security.

The Security Center serves up authentication events, security incidents and user experience at points, particularly where security friction could make or break the consumer interface experience, according to Okta.

Figure A. Ian Hassard, senior director of project management at Okta, said that, going forward, every Okta enterprise customer will have Security Center access whether they have the company's attack protection product or not.

The company said the security dashboard grabs data from Okta Customer Identity Cloud to provide a window into real-time authentication events, potential security incidents and threat response efficacy as well as the current state of attack protection and authentication traffic.

Hassard said data on customer engagement with sign-on interfaces is an important customer retention insight that allows identity management teams to tweak security friction without compromising protections against identity exploits.
