On June 18, 2026, Anthropic announced Okta as a featured identity provider for their beta program, enabling organizations to manage access to AI tools like Claude through centralized authorization. This partnership allows admins to provision Multi-Connector Protocol (MCP) connectors once, streamlining access for users based on their existing Okta roles. Key clients include Ramp, Webflow, and Hubspot, with support for connectors from Asana, Atlassian, and others. The initiative aims to enhance security and efficiency in enterprise AI workflows by implementing an open standard called Enterprise-Managed Authorization. This development is significant as it reduces the friction of user setup and enhances security by ensuring that access management is governed through a trusted identity provider. The program is currently in beta, with plans for broader availability in the future.
