Overview

Teleport is an Infrastructure Identity Platform designed to provide secure, identity-based access to all your infrastructure, including servers (SSH), Kubernetes clusters, databases, web applications, and Windows environments. It champions a Zero Trust security model, ensuring that every access request is authenticated, authorized, and audited based on user and machine identities, rather than network location.

The platform's core value proposition lies in simplifying secure access while enhancing security posture. It achieves this by consolidating various access methods into a single, unified control plane, enabling granular policy enforcement, session recording, and comprehensive auditing. Teleport helps organizations move away from traditional perimeter-based security to a modern, identity-centric approach, making it easier to manage access for human users and machine workloads across diverse and dynamic infrastructure landscapes.
