Browserbase and Okta: Cross App Access Ecosystem Brings Identity-Governed AI to browser agents

Browserbase has joined the Cross App Access (XAA) ecosystem to help enterprises securely deploy AI agents amid rapid adoption and reported weaknesses in traditional identity controls. XAA, also called the Identity Assertion Authorization Grant, is a vendor-neutral OAuth extension incorporated into MCP that replaces persistent API keys with real-time, identity-based tokens scoped to individual tasks. Through integration with Okta, Browserbase enables agent access to its APIs under existing enterprise policies, with revocable permissions and audit logging rather than static credentials or repeated consent requests. The company positions this approach as a way to let organizations run browser-based agent automations at scale while retaining centralized visibility and security governance.
