Nandagopal Seshagiri
Okta Inc.
Sr. Software Architect
I am a Senior Software Architect at Okta, specializing in secure infrastructure design, identity systems, and applied AI in cybersecurity. With over two decades of experience spanning cloud security, cryptographic systems, and trust management, I’ve led several initiatives that align with NIST’s mission of advancing standards-based security and interoperability. My work focuses on strengthening trust agility—building systems that adapt securely to dynamic identities and ephemeral infrastructure.
Beyond industry practice, I actively engage with the academic and professional community as a peer reviewer for IEEE, Elsevier, and Springer journals, and as a mentor for emerging engineers through global platforms. I am deeply committed to bridging research, standards, and real-world implementation, ensuring that the next generation of identity and access systems reflects both technological rigor and practical security needs.
