Anthropic secures Claude connectors via Okta

Centralizing AI governance via Okta is a major milestone that eliminates compliance friction, moving AI agents from toys to secure enterprise tools. It centralizes security governance by allowing IT administrators to manage permissions and deprovision access to sensitive data sources through an established identity provider. Furthermore, this integration validates Anthropic's Model Context Protocol as a production-ready standard for connecting LLMs to downstream applications and enables secure, bidirectional app actions inside Claude rather than just read-only context retrieval.
