For SSPM to detect posture risks in your Databricks instance, you must onboard your Databricks
instance to SSPM. Through the onboarding process, SSPM logs in to Databricks using
administrator account credentials. SSPM uses this account to scan your Databricks
instance for misconfigured settings. If there are misconfigured settings, SSPM
suggests a remediation action based on best practices.
SSPM gets access to your Databricks instance by using Okta SSO or Microsoft Azure
credentials that you provide during the onboarding process. For this reason, your
organization must be using Okta or Microsoft Azure as an identity provider. The Okta
