Disable and Contain a Specific Compromised User in Okta - Workflow Template

Workflow and nested workflow that can be used to disable a specific user in Okta when an account is found to be compromised.

Updated over 7 months ago

This workflow template outlines a robust response for disabling a specific compromised user in Okta. It is designed to be triggered on-demand, inclusive of Slack and Microsoft Teams integrations, with webhook support. Upon initiation, the workflow validates the executing user's permissions, gathers user details, sends notifications, and performs critical account containment actions such as password reset, user suspension, factor reset, and session clearance in Okta, ensuring swift mitigation against potentially compromised identities. The entire process results in a feedback loop with real-time updates provided to the initiating user or team via Slack.
