teleport
The easiest, and most secure way to access and protect all of your infrastructure.
Teleport is an infrastructure access platform that integrates MCP server connectivity to provide identity-based authentication, authorization, and auditing for AI agents. It enables secure access to servers, Kubernetes clusters, databases, cloud APIs, and other infrastructure through short-lived certificates instead of static credentials. By placing policy enforcement between MCP clients and servers, Teleport ensures that AI agent tool invocations are authenticated and logged, protecting sensitive systems from unauthorized access while maintaining detailed audit trails of all agent activity.
Key Features

teleport — FAQ
What is the Teleport MCP server?+
Teleport is an infrastructure access platform that integrates with the Model Context Protocol to secure AI agent connections. It enforces identity-based authentication, authorization, and auditing for MCP clients accessing infrastructure resources without requiring custom authorization code.
How do I install Teleport for MCP integration?+
Deploy Teleport as a Linux daemon or Kubernetes cluster following the getting started guide, then configure MCP server connections according to the Model Context Protocol documentation. Teleport can be self-hosted or used as a managed cloud service.
Which MCP clients work with Teleport?+
Teleport works with any MCP-compatible client by providing a secure proxy layer between clients and servers. The integration is protocol-level, so it supports standard MCP implementations across AI agents and assistants.
Do I need API keys or credentials to use Teleport with MCP?+
Teleport eliminates the need for static API keys or passwords by issuing short-lived certificates based on your identity provider (Okta, Google Workspace, Microsoft Entra ID, or GitHub). You'll need to configure SSO integration with one of these providers.
Is Teleport free to use?+
Teleport offers both open-source Community Edition under a modified Apache 2.0 license and commercial Enterprise editions with cloud hosting and additional features. The source code is available under AGPL 3.0 for those compiling from source.
What infrastructure resources can AI agents access through Teleport?+
Teleport-secured MCP connections can access SSH servers, Kubernetes clusters, databases (PostgreSQL, MongoDB, MySQL, CockroachDB), Windows desktops, internal web applications, and cloud provider APIs (AWS, Azure, GCP) with full audit logging.
