Auth0, the modern identity platform solutions provider, has announced the Auth0 identity operating system (identity OS), a cloud-native and adaptable platform for development teams.

Auth0 identity OS

Built with extensible building blocks, the Auth0 identity OS enables organisations to manage the complexities of modern identity management, while also prioritising the security, privacy and convenience of their end users.

Striking the perfect balance among these priorities requires identity to integrate a myriad of different services and can create a significant integration hurdle. Identity ecosystem operators can now manage these complex integration needs, with the flexibility of full spectrum code (pro-code, low-code, and no code solutions).

High level of adaptability

This level of adaptability is a huge benefit for enterprises that are confronted with converging use cases

Customising to the requirements of different development teams removes their need to focus on identity infrastructure, when building differentiated applications.

This level of adaptability is a huge benefit for enterprises that are confronted with converging use cases and managing the eroding lines between identity for employees, business partners and consumers.

New features that support this adaptability include:

  • Auth0 Actions: An extensibility framework that executes server-less functions on triggers in a highly configurable way, to meet the unique needs of each developer. Auth0 Actions offers more tooling and an improved experience to easily extend and customise Auth0, providing development teams with the ability to solve identity problems more quickly.
  • Auth0 Organizations: An enhanced way for enterprise app teams to manage customers and partners in any multi-tenant, B2B, or SaaS application. With Auth0 Organizations, B2B implementations are less complex, enabling faster speed-to-market and a better overall experience for Business Customer Identity use cases.
  • Auth0 Identity Maturity Framework (IMF): An Auth0 tool that visualises a customer’s entire identity journey. Developed in collaboration with Auth0’s largest customers, the Auth0 Identity Maturity Framework provides a toolkit to benchmark current identity maturity, create a plan for an organisation’s identity journey and visualise how the Auth0 identity OS can identify and move practices from good to great.

Meeting security and privacy expectations

We believe the companies that succeed in the next five years will not only meet, but exceed the ever-growing expectations for security, privacy, and convenience,” said Shiv Ramji, Chief Product Officer at Auth0.

Shiv Ramji adds, “Traditional identity platforms are inflexible to customisation, which makes exceeding these expectations nearly impossible. The modern identity platform of the future, Auth0 identity OS, is adaptable. An integration bridge, a bridge between use cases, and a bridge for user experience is now critical for accelerating an enterprise’s scale and growth.

Identity cloud powerhouse solution

Auth0, recently acquired by Okta, believes in solving the breadth of identity needs for every customer and end-user. The Auth0 identity OS can be the powerhouse of an identity cloud, driving any combination of policies, configurations, full-spectrum code, APIs, and protocols to flexibly address any use case.
