What Rewind backs up

17 Okta resources, so a group comes back with its users.

Users

Users across your Okta org, together with the identity providers linked to each one.

Groups

Groups with their group rules and group members, exactly as they were assigned.

Applications

Applications across your Okta org, with their application connections and application features.

Application credentials

Application credentials, application key credentials and application tokens, held with their application.

Application access

Application grants, application groups and application users, the record of who had access.

Authentication policies

Authentication policies with their policy rules and the apps mapped to them.

Why it matters

Identity is the platform underneath every other platform.

Every login runs through your org.
One policy change, one bulk edit, and the people who can fix it are the people locked out. Rewind keeps a point-in-time copy of the directory and puts back the piece that changed.
Auditors need backup evidence, tested procedures, and documented RTO and RPO targets. Having a copy of your data isn’t the same as being able to reconstruct it, and that difference is exactly what an audit tests for.
Okta runs and secures the platform. Your users, your groups, your applications and your authentication policies are yours to keep recoverable. That split is the shared responsibility model, and Rewind is the independent copy you control, held outside Okta.
Okta can be fully online while your team is stuck, because an authentication policy or a group assignment changed underneath them. Resilience is putting that policy or that group back the way it was, on the day you need it.
Resilience

How Rewind puts your Okta org back.

01

Pick the day you want back.

Choose a point in time from your backup history and open your org as it stood that day. Users, groups, group rules, applications and authentication policies are all there to compare.
02

Groups come back with their users.

Rewind restores in dependency order, so each object arrives with what it needs. Groups return with their users, group rules return with their groups, and application groups return with the groups assigned on that date.
03

Application settings return to a previous version.

Application connections come back at the version you pick. Restoring application groups also brings back every group assigned to that application on your chosen date, so access lines up again.
Use cases

However things go wrong, Rewind helps you recover.

Roll back a hardening change that reached too far

Your security team tightens an authentication policy and it reaches further than anyone intended. The policy and its rules come back as they were before the change, and people sign in again.

Meet your compliance needs with confidence

Backups are encrypted in transit and at rest with AES-256, and every backup, restore, and export is written to an exportable audit log with 365 days of history. Rewind offers data residency in six regions.

Bring application group assignments back with your groups

A bulk edit clears group assignments across hundreds of applications, and rebuilding it team by team is weeks of work. Application groups come back from the day before with every assignment intact, so your teams keep operating.

Get every user back in the right groups

A sync from the system that feeds your directory rewrites group memberships across thousands of people. Groups return to how they stood the day before, together with your users, so each group has the people it had.
