Can the order of the default policies in Okta be changed?

The correct response highlights an important aspect of how policies in Okta are structured. Default policies in Okta cannot be deleted or altered in a way that would remove them from the policy framework. While administrators can create additional custom policies or rules to work in conjunction with the existing defaults, the default policies themselves maintain a fixed status within the system.

The intent behind this design is to ensure a baseline level of security and functionality that remains consistent across all instances of Okta. This helps prevent accidental misconfiguration or loss of foundational security policies that could arise from modifications. Understanding that these default policies are immutable reinforces the importance of carefully crafting any additional, customer-specific policies to enhance the security posture while adhering to the guidelines established by the defaults.
