Okta MFA Extensions

Add Purpose-Built MFA to Okta for Frontline, Shared, and Compliant Workforces

Credenti brings badge tap and QR login to Okta — unlocking secure access where phones and tokens can't go.

The Problem

While Okta offers strong support for modern MFA, many industries operate in environments where phones, security keys, or personal devices are not allowed. This includes cleanrooms, shared workstations, kiosks, and high-security facilities. These constraints create challenges when enforcing MFA as required by internal policies or regulatory frameworks. If phones and tokens are off the table, organizations are left with very few viable MFA options — often forcing them to compromise on compliance or user experience.

The Solution

Credenti adds flexible, secure MFA factors to Okta — including badge tap and QR scan — without requiring mobile phones or hardware tokens. These methods are available as external MFA factors within the Okta platform, extending the MFA options Okta administrators can configure and enforce. By integrating at the IdP level, Credenti empowers organizations to apply strong, phishing-resistant MFA even in shared device or phone-restricted environments. Each login is fast, compliant, and seamless across regulated systems, giving IT teams more control and users more convenience.
