SHOW NOTES:

• Okta (homepage)
• Outsourcing Identity Management for Busy Developers (The New Stack)

Topic 1 - Welcome to the show. Tell us about your background.

Topic 2 - Let’s begin by talking about the breadth of ways that Okta can now secure things for companies, applications, and developers. How do the pieces from Okta and (previously Auth0) fit together? 

Topic 3 - As an application developer, where and when do I need to think about identity and authentication, and when is it a function of the infrastructure? 

Topic 4 - Can you walk us through some common access and application patterns, so we have a better understanding of how many places that authentication, identity, access-mgmt come into play?  

Topic 5 - From a bigger picture perspective, how do companies think about ownership and operations of these functional areas - do they own it, do they offload it to the cloud - what considerations do they need to make?

Topic 6 - How do developers typically engage with your teams and products/services? Do they need to be security experts first, or do you guide them through what to own and how Okta can offload core elements?
