(“Okta” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: OKTA). The class action is on behalf of shareholders who purchased Okta securities between March 5, 2021 and March 22, 2022, both dates inclusive (the “Class Period”).

There is no cost or obligation to you.
The complaint alleges that, throughout the Class Period, Defendants made materially false and misleading statements regarding the Company’s business, operations, and compliance policies. Specifically, Defendants made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (i) Okta had inadequate cybersecurity controls; (ii) as a result, Okta’s systems were vulnerable to data breaches; (iii) Okta ultimately did experience a data breach caused by a hacking group, which potentially affected hundreds of Okta customers; (iv) Okta initially did not disclose and subsequently downplayed the severity of the data breach; (v) all the foregoing, once revealed, was likely to have a material negative impact on Okta’s business, financial condition, and reputation; and (vi) as a result, the Company’s public statements were materially false and misleading at all relevant times.
A lead plaintiff will act on behalf of all other class members in directing the Okta class-action lawsuit. The lead plaintiff can select a law firm of its choice to litigate the class-action lawsuit. An investor's ability to share any potential future recovery of the Okta class action lawsuit is not dependent upon serving as lead plaintiff.
