Introducing Okta Identity Governance 
At Oktane 21, we announced that Okta would introduce Okta Identity Governance - a new and reimagined product to better tackle security, automation and compliance goals for any organization. We are really excited to announce that Okta Identity Governance is now Generally available, for all customers based in North America!

Okta's unified platform extends access and identity administration to include the key access governance tools that modern organizations need to implement zero trust architecture with identity centric security. Okta’s unified IAM and governance platform improves enterprises security posture that helps them mitigate modern security risks, improve IT efficiency and employee productivity. 

What’s new with Okta Identity Governance?

• Okta Access Requests: Simplify and automate the process of requesting and approving access to applications and resources. Self-service capabilities, tightly integrated with popular collaboration tools, meet users where they are, delivering a streamlined, frictionless experience to auto-provision their access.
• Okta Access Certifications: Create and manage access review campaigns. Periodically reviewing user access to critical resources, and approving or revoking access automatically, is essential for ensuring that all users have the right level of access across all resources.
