Onboard a Lokalise App to SSPM

Connect a Lokalise App instance to SSPM to detect posture risks.
For SSPM to detect posture risks in your Lokalise instance, you must onboard your Lokalise instance to SSPM. Through the onboarding process, SSPM logs in to Lokalise using administrator account credentials. SSPM uses this account to scan your Lokalise instance for misconfigured settings. If there are misconfigured settings, SSPM suggests a remediation action based on best practices.
SSPM gets access to your Lokalise instance by using Okta SSO credentials that you provide during the onboarding process. For this reason, your organization must be using Okta as an identity provider. The Okta account must be configured for multi-factor authentication (MFA) using one-time passcodes.
To onboard your Lokalise instance, you complete the following actions:

Collect Information for Connecting to Your Lokalise Instance

To access your Lokalise instance, SSPM requires the following information, which you will specify during the onboarding process.
ItemDescription
