Auth0 Identity Platform Now Available on Microsoft Azure

SINGAPORE
– Media OutReach – 10 December 2021 – The Auth0 Identity Platform, a product unit within Okta
(NASDAQ: OKTA), announces the launch of the Auth0 Identity Platform on Microsoft Azure. The launch gives customers
the ability to choose Azure as their cloud deployment option from Auth0. The
addition of Azure as an Auth0 private cloud platform option unlocks a secure
cloud deployment option for organizations seeking strategic fit with their
technology stack, supporting regional data residency capabilities and higher
control over customer data.

Today,
organizations moving to the cloud and selecting a Customer
Identity and Access Management (CIAM) solution require significant control over
sensitive customer data and may require local data residency capabilities. They
often have to make a hard choice of selecting either a CIAM solution that
supports their product differentiation goals or one that meets their  technical requirements and regulatory needs.
Auth0‘s modern identity platform
eliminates the need to choose by providing organizations with tools designed to
support security, compliance, and data residency needs that may apply to them,
across multiple regions globally. The platform‘s design can accelerate their
time to value and go-to-market strategies to meet their long-term growth goals.

Key
benefits of the Auth0 Identity Platform on Azure include:

• Technology Stack Alignment: Organizations have the flexibility to choose
  Azure as their preferred cloud vendor for greater technology stack alignment
  with existing investments in Azure.
• Data Residency: Improved data residency
  capabilities for Auth0 customers with Azure‘s widespread geographic infrastructure.
• Streamlined Experience with Private Cloud: A modern, cloud-native
  platform built with a focus on security and compliance at every level.
  Organizations requiring data residency options can take advantage of periodic
  feature updates while maintaining control over the timing and the ability to
  roll back without the hassle of having to maintain them — resulting in faster
  time to market and a more seamless experience for organizations and their
  customers.

“As more applications move to the cloud and expand globally,
organizations depend on their identity service to protect and manage access for
their most critical users, applications, and data,” said Shiv Ramji, Chief Product
Officer at Auth0. “The Auth0 Identity Platform on Azure can help
unlock a secure and compliant cloud deployment experience for organizations
seeking support across CIAM use cases. This is especially true for
organizations in industries like retail or financial services where selecting
vendors that are not competitive to their business is top priority,
organizations operating in regions where certain cloud providers have higher
geographic availability, and those that have existing technology investments in
Azure.”

“Companies like Auth0 add value by integrating their solutions with Microsoft
Azure,” said Mandana Javaheri, Global Senior Director,
SCI Business Development at Microsoft Corp. “With Azure, Auth0 customers
have ultimate performance capabilities and control over their environment
without the hassle of maintaining it, allowing customers to focus more on their
core business proposition.”
