The Blacksmith InfoSec integration with Okta brings modern, automated identity governance to MSPs seeking rigorous, yet effortless, compliance across all client environments. By synchronizing Okta’s cloud-based identity and access management engine with Blacksmith’s compliance automation platform, MSPs can centralize user lifecycle management, run continuous access reviews, and generate audit-ready documentation — removing the manual effort and risks of disconnected tools and spreadsheets.

How the Integration Works

• Real-Time User and Group Synchronization:
  The integration uses secure protocols (including SCIM) to automatically sync all users and groups from Okta into Blacksmith InfoSec. This ensures that every access review, deprovisioning, and compliance process is based on up-to-date, authoritative identity data.

• Automated Access Reviews and Lifecycle Controls:
  User provisioning, deprovisioning, and role assignments can be orchestrated directly from Okta and reflected instantly in compliance documentation. Dormant, over-privileged, or orphaned accounts are flagged automatically for review and remediation.

• Centralized, Audit-Ready Compliance:
  Blacksmith’s interface tracks access changes, policy acknowledgments, and compliance evidence in one place, providing clear, business-ready reports for auditors and stakeholders—no manual data export or spreadsheet reconciliation required.

Real-World Benefits for MSPs

• Eliminate Manual Identity Management:
  Automate critical provisioning/deprovisioning workflows to ensure rapid onboarding and offboarding, while reducing the risk of leftover credentials or permission creep.

• Instant, Unified Visibility
  Centralize all Okta user access and roles for every client, making it simple to spot risks, enforce least privilege, and prepare compliance documentation at any time.

• Continuous Compliance, Less Effort
  With all changes synchronized and documented automatically, MSPs can demonstrate audit evidence and regulatory readiness—without last-minute scramble or technical headaches.
