Okta is a cloud-based identity and access management software company that helps organizations manage and secure user authentication into applications, web services, and devices. While Okta is a cybersecurity vendor helping organizations with secure authentication, they also have an internal security team that focuses on protecting Okta from incoming threats with Snowflake.

In this Show Me Your Architecture session, Jacob Thomas, Principal Engineer for the Cyber Defense team at Okta, will:

• Discuss the challenges of legacy SIEMs and why Okta decided to build their custom SIEM on top of Snowflake
• Demonstrate how to use Snowflake as a security data lake and as an application-development platform
• Illustrate how to deploy evolving use cases from detection alerting, threat hunting, and security metrics with Snowflake
