The bigger concern to me is not Okta but rather the companies it acquired. One of them specifically integrates directly with Okta to manage agents running on production servers as root. This would be an incredibly valuable target, much more so than access to some web front-ends. In some cases the damage done through a web front end can be rolled back assuming an audit trail. Damage done to large numbers of servers in many companies as root would be quite challenging and time consuming to remediate and that is assuming tested backups are in place that root can not tamper with. I have failed to convince companies to have backups that root can not tamper with.
If I were Okta that is the first thing I would be locking down ASAP.
