Aembit Launches Support for Okta Cross App Access, Extending Enterprise Identity Controls to AI Agents
Aembit adds Okta Cross App Access so enterprises can govern AI agent access with existing identity.
Aembit announced support for Okta Cross App Access, an open protocol that lets a user's existing enterprise identity authorize downstream applications without a separate consent step. The capability is offered through Aembit IAM for Agentic AI and launched as an Okta partner at Oktane 2026. A new Enterprise-Managed Authorization credential provider implements the Model Context Protocol working group's extension and sits alongside Aembit's existing OAuth controls.
- Aembit now supports Okta Cross App Access for AI agent authorization.
- The partnership launches at Oktane 2026 in Las Vegas.
- Blended identity links the user, agent, and governing policy.
- A new provider implements MCP Enterprise-Managed Authorization.
- OAuth remains available where Cross App Access is unsupported.
