Achievement First implemented the Okta Identity Cloud to address its identity management challenges. The organization initially tested Okta with three applications and later expanded to secure over 140 applications. Okta's pre-built integrations and vendor-agnostic approach facilitated a smooth transition to a cloud-first infrastructure. During the COVID-19 crisis, Okta enabled rapid deployment of Zoom and Zendesk, supporting remote education and IT operations. Okta's security features, including Single Sign-On and Multi-Factor Authentication, ensured secure remote work and learning environments.
