TELEPORT INFRASTRUCTURE IDENTITY PLATFORM
Teleport Machine & Workload Identity
Trusted by Market Leaders
Machine identities are proliferating exponentially
But present identity risk.
Machines & workloads are often over-permissioned, unmanaged, or orphaned... leaving your infrastructure exposed. And, the engineers deploying automated processes and managing service accounts face speed versus security tradeoffs.
Eliminate static credentials, eliminating anonymous computing and transforming infrastructure to trusted computing environments.
Deploy universal identity, streamlining service account workflows that cross multi-cloud environments or software delivery to multiple server clusters.
Eliminate standing privileges, with job and task-based authorization that reduces blast radius and prevents lateral movement by malicious actors.
Purpose-built for machine & workload automation & ephemeral workloads
Eliminate static credentials
Eliminate static API keys, tokens, and SSH keys with zero trust, cryptographic identities.
Secure CI/CD pipelines
Securely push artifacts and deploy code without hard-coding credentials, with task-based authorization.
Secure inter-service communication
Establish mutual TLS (mTLS) connections with fine-grained access policies between microservices.
FOR SECURITY LEADERS
Eliminate Static, Over-Privileged Credentials
Prevent non-human identity breaches by locking down attack surfaces with mTLS and fine-grained access control.
Eliminate secrets and establish zero trust throughout your infrastructure stack, with authentication of all service requests.
Go secretless
Eliminate credentials. Adopt fine-grained access policies and ephemeral privileges based on short-lived certificates.
Implement mTLS
Leverage mTLS authentication based on X.509 certificates to build trusted communication in your infrastructure.
Authenticate services
Authenticate to third-party APIs on AWS, GCP and Azure, or between services in your infrastructure.
Protect time to market
Enable workloads to securely access resources and services without the need to manage service account keys — so engineers stay focused on development.
Eliminate human error
Eliminate the risk of credential theft, misconfiguration, or loss.
Prevent shadow access
Eliminate the creation of ungoverned credentials that introduce risk into your infrastructure and applications.
FOR ENGINEERING TEAMS
Reduce Friction for Engineers
Eliminate the risk of human error, misconfiguration, and shadow access by removing the task of secrets administration and the overhead of handling hard-to-manage secrets from engineers.
Get rid of secrets sprawl, and free up your engineers to focus on time to market objectives rather than credentials administration.
FOR INFRASTRUCTURE LEADERS
Unify Human and Non-Human Access Policies
Manage your non-human identities with the same tools and processes as your human identities.
Eliminate access silos and simplify identity governance and security across heterogeneous environments.
Automate access
Build consistency in your infrastructure security with unified access control and policies.
Meet compliance policies
Pass audits with flying colors, for human and non-human identities.
Unify governance
Define policy and govern both human and non-human identities in one place.
Automation is the New Attack Surface
Securing Non-Human Identities (NHIs) at the Infrastructure Layer
Modern infrastructure moves fast. Automation now powers nearly every critical system — from provisioning environments with code, to deploying software through pipelines, to scaling workloads across distributed services and AI agents.
But beneath that velocity lies an expanding layer of risk that’s often invisible: non-human identities (NHI). Download this paper to learn more.
