An Intellyx Brain Candy Update
When we last covered Teleport in April 2023, the company focused on delivering secretless access to server and cloud-based resources, including ephemeral Kubernetes services.
Today, Teleport has expanded its offering to a platform providing on-demand, least-privileged access to infrastructure, leveraging cryptographic identity, zero-trust access, secretless authentication, as well as identity and policy governance.
Teleport addresses four core problems: engineer and workforce productivity, identity attacks on infrastructure, compliance with security and identity-related regulations, and delivering infrastructure defense in depth.
Infrastructure defense in depth comprises per-session MFA, enforced MFA for admin actions, and mandatory MFA enrollment, as well as web authentication, configurable access requests to resources or roles, and enforcing dual authorization for privileged roles.
