Okta Certified Professional practice examsIn development
Okta Certified Professional
Administering Okta: the org and Universal Directory, bringing users in from a directory and keeping them current, single sign-on across SAML, OIDC and SWA, the policies that decide what is required, and reading the system log when something is refused.
What you get
Papers are cut from the bank and weighted like the real exam, and no question appears in two of them. Every wrong answer comes back on later days until you have it right.
What the exam covers
| Okta architecture and organisation configuration | Not published |
| Applications and single sign-on | Not published |
| Authentication, policies and multifactor | Not published |
| Monitoring, reporting and troubleshooting | Not published |
Two sample questions
1. What can a rule match on?
- Group and network zone, since the rest are unreliable
- Device and the client used to connect
- Risk alone, as computed at that moment
- Group, network zone, device, client and risk — correct
Why: The breadth of conditions is what makes a proportionate policy possible.
2. Why do group rules scale access?
- Membership auto-updates — correct
- They must be edited for each new user
- They sign the assertions for every app
- They export the events after each login
Why: Group rules re-evaluate on attribute changes, so membership updates automatically.
