Automate User Access Reviews in Okta & Simplify Governance
Okta user access reviews, automated: YouAttest audits the users, groups, applications and permissions in Okta and sends reviewers a campaign to approve or revoke access.
What Is an Okta User Access Review?
An Okta user access review is a periodic check, required by most compliance frameworks, that each person’s access still matches their job. Reviewers certify what should stay, flag what should go, and the organization keeps a record that the review happened.

Frequently Asked Questions: Okta Access Reviews
How often should we review Okta access?
Many organizations review quarterly, and review privileged access more often, with monthly a common interval. Your framework or auditor sets the requirement, and YouAttest lets you schedule recurring campaigns to match.
Do we need to write code or manage API tokens?
No. YouAttest connects to Okta through SSO using OIDC or SAML, and both are supported.
Does YouAttest store our Okta credentials?
No. Credentials stay in Okta, and admins and reviewers sign in through Okta SSO.
Can we review apps that aren’t in Okta?
Yes. Upload those entitlements as a CSV into the siloed data store, map them to your Okta users, and review them alongside your Okta resources in one panel.
How long does deployment take?
Minutes. You connect through Okta SSO, so there is no coding or API setup.
How is YouAttest different from Okta’s built-in governance features?
YouAttest is designed for audits that span your whole environment, not only what Okta manages. It reviews Okta and non-Okta resources in one panel, with your Okta users and managers as reviewers. It also adds an AI-based Identity Trust Score™ to prioritize risk, and triggers on key entitlement changes.
