CockroachDB has introduced enterprise authentication, enabling organizations to connect their enterprise identity providers (IdP) using SAML or OIDC for secure and compliant access to CockroachDB Cloud services. This feature addresses the InfoSec and risk management needs by allowing users to sign in with their enterprise credentials, automatically applying any existing password policies, multi-factor authentication, and other security measures configured at the IdP level. Administrators can manage authentication methods for their organization, enabling specific protocols while disabling others, and can simplify user onboarding with auto-provisioning features that create user accounts upon first sign-in. This enhancement supports both CockroachDB Dedicated and Serverless services, facilitating flexible and secure identity management for enterprises.
