Teleport can provide secure connections to you databases while improving both access control and visibility.
Some of the things you can do with Database Access:
- Users can retrieve short-lived database certificates using single sign-on flow thus maintaining their organization-wide identity.
- Configure role-based access controls for databases and implement custom Access Request workflows.
- Capture database access events as well as query activity in the audit log.
Database Access currently supports the following databases:
- PostgreSQL
- MySQL
- MariaDB
- MongoDB
- Redis
- CockroachDB
- Microsoft SQL Server
Demo
Let's connect to a PostgreSQL server with psql and pgAdmin 4 after authenticating
with GitHub, execute a few SQL queries and observe them in the audit log:
