Case Study: ADT secures 12,000+ employees and modernizes workforce identity with Okta

ADT secures 12k+ employees with Okta

ADT, a leading provider of security and smart home solutions, faced the challenge of securing its large, distributed workforce of over 12,000 employees across more than 150 locations. The scale introduced operational complexity and a vast attack surface, making employees targets for credential theft and phishing. To simplify management and reduce risk, ADT chose to build its defense around the Okta Workforce Identity platform.

Okta implemented a unified identity solution featuring Single Sign-On (SSO) and phishing-resistant Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) to safeguard application access. They extended this security to physical hardware with Okta Device Access and FastPass, creating a passwordless login experience. By combining Identity Security Posture Management (ISPM) and Identity Threat Protection (ITP), Okta provided continuous defense and a single pane of glass for visibility, allowing ADT to proactively remediate risks and automate governance tasks, which freed up security personnel for more strategic work.
