That means we have built a business that can support them by making the right choices that ensure we are in business for the long haul

Our take
For the millions of companies that have complex layers of tech, Teleport offers a single sign-on bringing discovery and instant access to these layers. This means freedom from having to hop between VPNs and multiple access points while handling shared secrets and sensitive data.
This enables engineers to quickly access any computing resource anywhere on the planet, bringing a unification of access to SSH servers, Kubernetes clusters, and web applications across all environments. It's a smart move because complexity and security go hand in hand - slow engineers leave companies open to poor safety standards.
Trusted by organisations like Airtable, Samsung, and Auth0, Teleport is the unified access plane of choice among many leading companies. It continues to update the platform with new features, such as adding a string of improvements to deal with the security challenges arising from remote work environments. Teleport has also raised significant funding that is supporting the expansion of the team and enhancing its product development.

Company values
- We write it down - Writing things down helps to preserve and share our thoughts, leads to smarter work and more scalable growth.
- We are professionals - We treat each other the same way we treat our customers: with respect.
- We think slow - Slow, academic, logical, calculating, conscious, even “boring” contemplation leads to better decisions.
- We are drivers, not passengers - Drivers take control, responsibility and influence outcomes.
- We are builders - Ideas themselves are useless. Building something new starts with unglamorous, tedious work that sets the foundation for scale later.
- We lift each other up - We never elevate ourselves at someone’s expense.
- We assume the principle of charity - When communication is brief and something is unclear, we assume that the other person is just as smart as we are, and is acting in good faith.
- We value each other’s time - We put the extra effort into making it easy for others to work with us. We respect being “in the zone” and understand the cost of context shifting.
