Commvault Adds Okta Support to Strengthen Identity Resilience

Commvault has expanded its identity resilience capabilities to include support for Okta, allowing organizations to better protect and recover identity data stored in the widely used identity and access management platform. The integration enables customers to back up and recover critical Okta configuration data, including users, groups, policies and application settings. If identity infrastructure is compromised or misconfigured, organizations can restore those components to a known good state using Commvault’s data protection platform. Key capabilities of the integration include accelerated recovery from identity disruptions, ransomware-resistant protection, streamlined recovery and unified identity resilience.

Identity systems have become frequent targets for attackers because they control authentication across enterprise applications. Security researchers have increasingly warned that breaches involving identity providers can allow attackers to move laterally through corporate environments with limited resistance. The integrated platform is expected to be available through Early Access in spring 2026 with GA planned for the summer of 2026.
