Integration Overview

OpenEye Web Services - Okta Integration Diagram

The goal of identity management is to ensure that only authenticated users are granted access to the applications, systems or IT environments for which they are authorized. Don’t leave out your video surveillance system. Ensuring that the same user access policies and rules are applied consistently across your organization, including your video surveillance systems, adds an additional layer of protection. With Okta identity management integrated with OpenEye Web Services, we are able to provide a secure single sign-on solution that allows user management and user group provisioning from the Okta interface.
