Overview
This article describes how to block the Okta sign-on page from loading within defined network zones.
Applies To
- Blocklist
- Network Zones
- Okta Sign On/Login Page
Solution
- Log in to the Admin Console.
-
Navigate to Security > Networks.
-
Click the Add Zone button.
-
The Admin can select Dynamic Zones or IP Zone.
5. Select the option Block access from IPs matching conditions listed in this zone.
6. Click Save.
NOTE: One significant benefit of using the Blocklist zone is that it can help prevent brute-force attacks from defined networks/locations without locking out end-user accounts, as attackers can not even load the Org sign-in page from blocklisted networks (and therefore do not have an opportunity to enter the invalid credentials).
