Teleport

Centralized access gateway using the SSH protocol

What is Teleport?

Teleport is a gateway for managing access to clusters of *nix servers via SSH or the Kubernetes API. While it does also support connecting to servers running traditional OpenSSH, its own node deamon is intended to be used instead for additional functionality.

With Teleport it is simple to adopt SSH best practices like using certificate-based access and enabling 2FA via TOTP e.g. Google Authenticator, U2F or an SSO provider. Cluster nodes can be accessed via a CLI tsh or a Web UI which both allow for session sharing.

Teleport provides centralized user management as well as full session recordings that can be played back for knowledge sharing or auditing purposes. It can also be used to protect Web applications like dashboards.
