WASHINGTON—Hundreds of customers of digital authentication firm Okta Inc. have possibly been affected by a security breach caused by a hacking group known as Lapsus$, the company said on Tuesday.

The breach has sparked concern since the cyber extortion gang posted what appeared to be internal screenshots from within the organization’s network roughly a day ago.
