CloudNetworks (CEO Heung-Kyun Jeong) announced a strategic partnership with Okta, a global Identity and Access Management (IAM) company. This collaboration aims to fundamentally strengthen the protection of corporate infrastructure and customer data, responding to the growing security threats posed by the recent surge in identity-based attacks and the proliferation of generative AI.
Okta is a leading global IAM platform with over 19,000 customers worldwide. It provides end-to-end identity security capabilities, including single sign-on (SSO), adaptive MFA, PAM, and identity governance. Its strengths include flexible, integrated management capabilities across both cloud and on-premises environments, and diverse application integration.
Through this partnership, CloudNetworks will provide domestic customers with its "Okta" platform, which supports organization-wide authentication and access management, and its "Auth0" platform, which provides customer authentication and authorization management for applications and web services. This will enable authentication, authorization control, governance, and access management across not only human (employees, partners, and customers) but also non-human identities such as applications, machines, and AI agents, all on a single platform.
Furthermore, CloudNetworks combines QueryPie, HashiCorp, Splunk, and Okta to provide an integrated architecture that organically connects the entire security process, including identity management and authentication, access control, data protection, log analysis, and visualization. Through this, CloudNetworks plans to further strengthen its unique zero-trust security system.
“We are very pleased to partner with Cloud Networks and introduce Okta’s IAM solution, which has already been verified by domestic and international customers, to the Korean market,” said Hwang Gyu-eon, CEO of Okta Korea. “Through this partnership, companies will be able to protect their core assets more effectively from increasingly sophisticated security threats, and we expect to be able to provide more valuable services to domestic customers, especially based on Cloud Networks’ extensive business experience.”
“ID is now more than just a simple login method; it is the starting point of security and a key entry point to corporate infrastructure and customer data,” said Jeong Heung-gyun, CEO of Cloud Networks. “Through our partnership with Okta, we will add world-class ID security capabilities to our portfolio, build a more robust integrated security environment, and support customers to focus on their core businesses without worrying about security threats.”
