MIND Integrates with Okta for Enhanced Insider Threat Prevention Amidst Rising Cybersecurity Challenges

MIND and Okta Team Up for Cybersecurity Enhancement

In a significant advancement in the field of cybersecurity, MIND has announced a strategic technology integration with Okta, marking a new chapter in the fight against insider threats. As organizations increasingly rely on data in an era dominated by artificial intelligence (AI), protecting sensitive information becomes paramount. This integration aims to merge two critical elements of cybersecurity—data security and identity management—solidifying defenses against potential data breaches caused by insider threats.

A New Era of Cybersecurity

MIND positions itself as the pioneer in automating Data Loss Prevention (DLP) and Insider Risk Management (IRM) solutions. By working alongside Okta, an industry leader in identity management, MIND enhances its capabilities, allowing security teams to dynamically enforce security policies based on granular identity signals. This means that organizations can now tailor their security measures according to user factors such as department, role, risk level, and even geographic location, achieving precision protection at unprecedented speeds and scales.

Eran Barak, Co-Founder and CEO of MIND, expressed his enthusiasm for this partnership, stating, "We believe identity and data security are inseparable. Okta is the source of truth for who users are, and MIND focuses on what data is critical. This integration brings those truths together in real-time, enhancing security teams' effectiveness in protecting sensitive data."

Enhancing Protection Against Insider Threats

The joint solution is designed to provide fortified protection against insider threats by continuously evaluating user context and behavior alongside data sensitivity and activity. By leveraging proactive detection capabilities, automated policy enforcement, and intelligent remediation measures, organizations can manage and mitigate risks associated with sensitive data exposure. This adds another layer of defense, especially important as the usage of Generative AI tools becomes prevalent in corporate environments.

Furthermore, Okta Ventures, which serves as the investment arm of Okta, supports MIND as a Series A investor, highlighting a shared vision between the two companies. Stephen Lee, the Vice President of Technical Strategy and Partnerships at Okta, remarked, "This integration marries identity and data security, enabling our joint customers to tackle cybersecurity risks more adaptively and intelligently."

Real-World Impact

An early adopter of this integrated solution, Guild, has already reported substantial benefits from implementing MIND and Okta's collaborative approach. Julie Chickillo, VP of Information Security at Guild, stated, "The moment I saw this Okta integration live in the MIND platform, I asked my team to set it up without delay. The impact has been remarkable."

This integration allows enterprises to adapt MIND's data security protocols dynamically by utilizing Okta's identity risk metrics, enforcing AI-driven data security measures tailored to specific contexts, and preventing potentially harmful insiders from leaking sensitive information.

Looking Forward: Oktane25 and Future Innovations

As the cybersecurity landscape continues to evolve, with hybrid work models and increased data reliance, MIND and Okta are at the forefront of securing this digital frontier. They will showcase their integrated platform at Oktane25, Okta's premier annual conference. This event gathers cybersecurity professionals to explore developments in identity security and discuss innovations designed to secure AI applications.

Participating at the conference offers MIND an excellent opportunity to demonstrate their game-changing solutions while engaging with industry leaders and clients. Attendees are encouraged to visit MIND's kiosk in the Okta Hub at the Caesars Forum in Las Vegas from September 24 to 25, 2025.
