Summary

The Teleport Access Platform provides on-demand, least-privileged access to infrastructure and improves the efficiency of engineering teams by eliminating attack surfaces such as shared secrets and standing privileges. Datadog's integration with Teleport enables monitoring of Teleport services and audit user session activity, allowing for more efficient and secure access to infrastructure. The integration collects metrics for monitoring critical Teleport components, providing insights into service health and performance, and enables close auditing of user sessions via Teleport audit logs to detect unusual behavior. With this integration, users can ensure their Teleport services are working as expected, monitor access across entire infrastructures, and stay on top of suspicious activity with comprehensive monitoring coverage.
