Integration with Okta

Learn how Okta integration can help you.

Updated over a month ago

Overview

Connecting Okta with Trio MDM allows your organization to manage users, devices, and access policies from a single source of truth—your identity infrastructure. With Okta's robust identity and access platform paired with Trio’s powerful mobile device management, you get centralized control, reduced risk, and seamless user experiences.

This integration is ideal for organizations focused on Zero Trust, least privilege, and cloud-native automation.

What You Gain from Okta + Trio Integration

Enterprise-Grade SSO

  • Users and admins sign into Trio using Okta credentials—SSO via OIDC or SAML 2.0.

  • Centralized identity means fewer credentials to manage and fewer support tickets.

  • Supports Okta's full security stack: MFA, risk-based access, device context, and more.

Automatic User & Group Provisioning (SCIM)

  • Okta syncs users and group membership to Trio in real-time using SCIM 2.0.

  • As roles or departments change in Okta, users are automatically re-assigned the correct Trio profiles and restrictions.

  • Keeps policy enforcement tightly aligned with organizational structure.

Attribute-Based Policy Enforcement

  • Use Okta user attributes (e.g., department, location, userType) to apply specific security policies in Trio.

  • Policies can control:

    • App deployments

    • Security configurations

    • VPN/Wi-Fi profiles

    • Access restrictions

Real-Time Device Compliance + Conditional Access

  • Trio reports device posture (e.g., OS version, encryption, jailbreak/root status) back to Okta.

  • Okta can block access to cloud resources or specific applications if the device is out of compliance.

  • Supports Okta Device Trust and integrates with Okta Policy Engine.

Just-in-Time Access

  • Temporary, task-based access for apps or networks is enabled only when compliance and context are satisfied.

  • Automatically revoked based on time, risk, or compliance status.

Why This Setup

✔︎ No manual user setup — Okta SCIM handles lifecycle events
✔︎ Adaptive security — Access changes based on context, location, and device health
✔︎ Unified login — One credential for all enterprise systems
✔︎ Policy-driven management — Okta identity drives Trio enforcement
✔︎ Future-proof — Easily scales across cloud apps, hybrid infrastructure, and remote teams

Real-World Example

Before Integration:

  • IT manually provisions users in the MDM.

  • Users keep outdated access long after changing roles.

  • No central view of identity + device risk.

After Integration:

  • Okta pushes identity and group data to Trio.

  • A new Sales rep automatically receives their apps, VPN, and restrictions.

  • Okta blocks corporate app access if the device is jailbroken or unpatched.
