Ingredients

  • Protect against natural disasters, broken configurations, or network loss. Automatically failover to on-prem AD so users can access apps until the issue is fixed.
  • Make attributes and policies consistent between Okta and AD. Seamlessly map common attributes with the Schema Abstraction Layer™. .
  • What the user sees
  • What the admin does
  • Familiar login. Users log in via the Microsoft Entra ID portal and follow the authentication access flow.
  • Invisible redirection. Behind the scenes, Maverics makes sure that your Microsoft Entra ID instance is online and — if there are any challenges — directs the user to Active Directory.
  • Quick authentication. The user enters their details, gets authenticated and logs in. Everything in the app looks the same as before and access is granted.
  • Define your strategy. Set Okta as your primary IDP and configure AD as your secondary IDP to define your failover strategy within the Maverics UI.
  • Define the attributes your application needs in the Schema Abstraction Layer™. Separately map them to claims available from Okta and Active Directory.
