Auth0

Auth0 provides authentication and authorization solutions for web, mobile, and legacy applications.

Use Cases the Adapter Solves

  • Audit User Accounts Across Your Auth0 Tenants: Automatically inventory all Auth0 users in Axonius to identify inactive, blocked, or unverified accounts and ensure they comply with your identity governance policies.
  • Monitor Tenant Security Configuration: Track critical Auth0 tenant settings — such as session lifetime, legacy grant type flags, and clickjack protection — directly in Axonius to detect misconfigurations and enforce security baselines.

This lets you monitor and validate security-critical tenant configuration settings directly in Axonius, including authentication requirements, session policies, and legacy API controls. |For further information refer to Auth0 Management API - Tenant Settings.
