Okta Ad Agent Download

The Okta AD Agent is designed to scale easily and transparently. For redundancy a cluster can be created by installing Okta AD Agents on multiple Windows Servers; the Okta service registers each Okta AD Agent and then distributes authentication and user management commands across them automatically. If any agent loses connectivity or fails to respond to commands, it is removed from rotation and the administrator is notified via email. In parallel, the Okta AD Agent will attempt to reconnect to the service using an exponential back-off capped at 1-minute intervals.

The Okta LDAP Agent is designed to scale easily and transparently. For redundancy a cluster can be created by installing Okta LDAP Agents on multiple Windows Servers; the Okta service registers each Okta LDAP Agent and then distributes authentication and user management commands across them automatically. If any agent loses connectivity or fails to respond to commands, it is removed from rotation and the administrator is notified via email. In parallel, the Okta LDAP Agent will attempt to reconnect to the service using an exponential back-off capped at 1-minute intervals.

Download and install the latest version of the Okta Active Directory (AD) agent on your host servers to make sure that you have the most current features and functionality and get optimum performance. If you are running multiple Okta AD agents, make sure they are all the same version. Running different versions within a domain can cause all agents in that domain to function at the level of the oldest agent. This doesn't affect other domains.

If you're using a group Managed Service Account (gMSA) for the Okta AD agent service account, enter the account name and leave the Password field empty. You must include a dollar sign ($) at the end of the account name. For example, gMSA01$@example.com.

If the error message "The underlying connection was closed. Could not establish trust relationship for the SSL/TLS service channel" appears you are likely installing a version of the Okta AD agent with SSL pinning enabled by default and this prevents communication with Okta. This is most likely to occur in environments that rely on SSL proxies. To complete the installation, Okta recommends adding the domain okta.com to an allowlist to bypass SSL proxy processing. You can also disable SSL certificate pinning.

To install the Okta AD agent, one or more Windows servers are required. These servers are called host servers. These host servers must be on at all times and have a continuous connection to the internet so that they can communicate with Okta.

Okta recommends that the Okta AD agent admin accounts are Okta-sourced and not AD-sourced. This does not affect existing AD-sourced administrators. It is recommended that you disconnect your admins from AD (select DirectoryPeopleMore ActionsDisconnect from AD, select the admin users who you want to disconnect, and then click Disconnect Selected).

Okta recommends you use the same AD service account to install all of your agents. During agent installation, you are asked if you want the installer create the Okta service account. You need one of the following based on your choice:

The Okta service account can be created by the installer. By default it is called OktaService. If you choose to use an existing domain user account, be sure to set the account password to never expire. Managed service accounts are supported by Okta AD agent version 3.6.0 and later.

The AD agent runs under the Okta account you specified (either the Oktaservice account the installer creates or the domain user you select during the agent install). Depending on the configuration of your integration, the agent performs the following actions:

As soon as Okta learned of this vulnerability, we promptly evaluated all cloud-hosted systems and customer premise agents to determine what might be impacted and methodically set about remediating any exposure.

Okta found no evidence that either Okta RADIUS Server Agent 2.17.1 or Okta On-Prem MFA Agent 1.4.7 agents were impacted by CVE-2021-45105, due to preconditions that must exist for this vulnerability to be exploitable. We have nonetheless released updated versions of both agents which patches the vulnerability reported in CVE-2021-45105.

We have further assessed CVE-2021-44832 in Log4j. Again, due to the preconditions that must exist for this vulnerability to be exploitable, we have assessed that neither the Okta core service nor any of the Okta agents are vulnerable. We will release further patches as part of our normal update cycle.

We have assessed CVE-2021-45105 in log4j. Due to the preconditions that must exist for this vulnerability to be exploitable neither the Okta core service nor any of the Okta agents are vulnerable. We will release further patches as part of our normal update cycle.

As a result of our ongoing investigation and review related to the updated criticality of CVE-2021-45046, we strongly recommend customers apply the following updates to customer agents, available from within the Okta Admin Console:

While Okta found no evidence that this agent was impacted, due to the lack of preconditions that must exist for this vulnerability to be exploitable, we have released an updated version of the agent. The new version includes Log4j 2.17.0, which fixes this issue.

The default settings for both the AD and LDAP agents, which require LDAP bind requests with passwords in plain text to authenticate the user with the local directory, allowed our agent to hijack the plain-text credentials of every user who tried to log in.

The previously mentioned SSWS token can also be used to listen for password changes. When a password change is requested, Okta will provide the plain-text user ID, email, and new user password. These sensitive properties are encrypted using a key that is also found in the agent configuration.

The SSWS can be used indefinitely, as many times as we want, without affecting the functionality of the original agent. This means that the same token can be used to poll for Okta commands in all integrated LDAP and Active Directories.

If just-in-time provisioning is enabled in the directory integration (implies delegated authentication), all authentication requests in Okta will be forwarded to all LDAP agents, both for existing Okta users and non-existing ones. We were able to use the SSWS token of one LDAP agent to authorize access to all LDAP and Active Directory users alike. We could also use the SSWS token to authenticate non-existing users and provision them as domain administrators, hoping that Active Directory domain administrators are also provided with privileged permissions in Okta automatically.

A malicious agent may run from anywhere, but experienced attackers will masquerade their password stealing by staging the attack from the victim's already compromised environment. As we demonstrate in these illustrations.

The user that runs the Okta Active Directory agent requires a number of different permissions to the desired OU(s) that are set out in the docs under the Minimum Okta Service Account permission requirements section (you may not need to give all permission depending on what you want Okta to do with your users but this example takes the full permissions outlined in the docs).

This blog shows an architecture pattern that you can use to synchronize your on-premises AD and AWS Managed AD objects. You can use Okta Identity Cloud using an Okta AD agent for syncing users and groups. The Okta AD agent can be installed and configured on a domain-joined on-premises server or an Amazon EC2 instance on AWS (see Figure 1).

Okta is an enterprise-grade identity management service, which is compatible with many on-premises and cloud applications. The Okta AD agent enables you to integrate Okta with your on-premises AD. This way you can integrate your SaaS applications and your AD instances with Okta. You can simplify and centralize user management and share user credentials with other integrated cloud and on-premises applications.

Download and install Okta AD agent on your Amazon EC2 instance, which should be domain-joined with AWS Managed AD. One Okta AD agent can associate with multiple domains. Once the trust has been set up between on-premises AD and AWS Managed AD, you can associate multiple domains under the same Okta AD agent on Amazon EC2, instead of hosting and managing separate Okta AD agent servers in your own data center and AWS.

For a highly available architecture, a redundant Okta AD agent running in your corporate data center is recommended. This will help you avoid the impact of network connectivity failure between data centers and AWS Regions. Okta recommends installing multiple Okta AD agents on each domain server to achieve high availability and failover protection.

Once the Okta agent is installed and configured on the Amazon EC2 instance, log in to the Okta admin console. Under the provisioning to Okta tab, do a full import of users from AWS Managed AD (see Figure 2, Figure 3). The subsequent objects synchronization will be done through scheduled import with a minimum interval of one hour. After the import is done, if there are any user account overlaps between AWS Managed AD and Okta, manually assign the AD users to Okta users. You can create matching rules to automatically map the users from AD to Okta. Read Import AD users to Okta.

I open this converstaion in order to know if is there any configuration guide for the Cisco ISE (2.7) to work with the OKTA, currently we are struggling to get this done, because the Okta Agent show us Invalid credentials, I use an ASA to establish the vpn for the end-users, a Cisco ISE and a Linux server for the OKTA agent, no communication issues, only the 'Invalid credentials'. I don't receive the push on the OKTA verify app in my mobile, however, when I run a test with the NTRadPing Test Utility it's good, the agent it's working fine, we suspect that something is missing or wrong in the ISE. 17dc91bb1f
