Starting with Teleport
Identity-Native Infrastructure Access.
Background
Teleport is a Certificate Authority and an Access Plane for infrastructure.
Fast, secure, scalable Identity-Native Infrastructure Access.
DevOps practices have revolutionized how apps and infrastructure are managed. But access hasn't kept up. Shared secrets like passwords and keys–the number one source of data breaches–are the norm. The Teleport Access Platform replaces shared secrets with true identity, removing risk while letting engineers go fast.
Why Teleport
Complexity + Scale = Risk
Pain points motivated Teleport to born:
Many endpoints
Many networks
Shared secrets
No identity
No visibility
No compliance and security standards met
Teleport Access Modules
SSH Access to nodes
Control SSH access into Linux and smart devices from a single source of truth using Teleport.
Kubernetes Access
Centrally manage Kubernetes access using identity rather than shared secrets across all environments.
Web Apps - No need VPN
Easily provide controlled role-based access to your critical internal applications like AWS Management Console, CI/CD pipelines, monitoring dashboards, and other internal applications without relying on a VPN or secrets vault.
Databases Access
PostgreSQL, MySQL, MariaDB and MongoDB.
SSO (Singe Sign On) - Short-lived database certificates.
RBAC (Role Based Access Control) - Using Github, Okta SSO groups can assume which Teleport role to access which database in which account using which database user.
Approving Requests - Integrate with Slack and PagerDuty.
Audit logging - Capture database access events and query activities.
Desktops
Identity-based, passwordless access to Windows hosts across all computing environments: in the cloud, on-premises, or on the edge.
