The Teleport Infrastructure Identity Platform

Teleport is the easiest and most secure way to access and protect all your infrastructure.

The Teleport Access Platform is a suite of software and managed services that delivers on-demand, least-privileged access to infrastructure on a foundation of cryptographic identity and Zero Trust, with built-in identity security and policy governance.

Use cases

Organizations use the Teleport Access Platform to:

  • Eliminate infrastructure and access silos: Teleport provides a single system for role-based access controls, audit, and access for all of your infrastructure, from cloud provider APIs to Kubernetes clusters.
  • Introduce Zero Trust with theft-resistant credentials: Teleport authenticates access to all of your infrastructure with short-lived certificates, verified at every endpoint. You can roll out a Zero Trust strategy for your organization by setting up Teleport alone.
  • Address complex compliance needs: Teleport allows you to satisfy compliance frameworks like SOC 2, ISO 27001, and FedRAMP with no need for additional tooling or process changes.

Products

Architecture

The Teleport Access Platform consists of a certificate authority and identity-aware access proxy that run either on the Teleport-managed cloud or, in special cases, a self-hosted private network.

Teleport Agents, which can run on Linux servers or Kubernetes, proxy access to infrastructure resources and cloud provider APIs. Users authenticate to infrastructure resources through Teleport Agents using short-lived certificates. Certificates embed Teleport user attributes, allowing Teleport Agents to enforce role-based access controls.
