The Okta Difference

The Okta Difference

The Okta Identity Platform

Workforce Identity and Single Sign-On

Okta Workforce Identity Cloud delivers single sign-on, adaptive multi-factor authentication and Universal Directory as one source of truth for your staff, and we deploy it, integrate your applications and support you day to day.

Access Governance and Privileged Access

Okta Identity Governance handles access requests, reviews and certification for least privilege, Lifecycle Management automates joiner, mover and leaver provisioning, and Okta Privileged Access secures access to servers and infrastructure, and we deploy and configure the policies for you.

Adaptive MFA, Device Access and Auth0

Adaptive MFA adds risk-based, phishing-resistant authentication, Device Access secures the desktop login, and Customer Identity with Auth0 protects the applications you build, and we deploy and integrate all of it as one identity platform.

What They Say About Us

The managed service model delivers that, while freeing my team from the bulk of compliance coordination effort and lifting the quality of both controls and supporting evidence. The outcome is a programme with the capacity to mature further and to take on new certification frameworks proactively, ahead of client and regulatory triggers.
Sunil SaaleChief Information Security Officer, MinterEllison
What stands out is the depth of expertise. CyberPulse brings real command of the standards and the threat landscape, and applies it with judgement rather than box-ticking. Year on year they strengthen our security and compliance maturity and give leadership confidence that risk is genuinely understood, not just documented.
Raghu GandhyChief Information Security Officer, Veolia
CyberPulse gave us clarity we didn't have before, not just on where we stood but a practical path forward. The roadmap they delivered has become the foundation of how we think about security investment.
Jimmy O'ReganHead of IT, Major NRL Club & Hospitality Group
Their guidance was practical, clear, and always grounded in what actually mattered for our business. They didn't just help us tick boxes; they helped us build a security posture we're genuinely proud of. If you're serious about enterprise-grade security, I can't recommend Cyber Pulse highly enough.
