Teleport announced that it has been named to the 2026 Fortune Cyber 60 list, recognizing its rapid growth and commitment to delivering identity security solutions to engineering and infrastructure teams.
More than 600 companies, including three of the top five financial services firms and the pioneers in AI research, compute, and cloud, depend on Teleport to reduce risk and simplify access.
Access and identity security
Teleport improves business velocity and infrastructure resiliency by managing privileged access through a unified, trusted identity framework. Identities—whether human, machine, or AI—are secured based on physical-world attributes such as hardware fingerprints, device identity, and biometric or cryptographic proof, ensuring every connection is verifiable and trustworthy.
This unified control plane enforces consistent policies, eliminates the complexity of managing secrets and vaults, and reduces the attack surface and risk of secrets theft across all environments. With just-in-time access and identity security, teams can deliver faster, more secure operations while minimizing standing privileges and risk exposure.
Human, machine, and AI identities
“Being named to Fortune’s Cyber 60 list is an honor and validation that Teleport is helping enterprises turn secure infrastructure into a business accelerator,” said Ev Kontsevoy, Teleport CEO.
“By unifying human, machine, and AI identities under a single trusted framework, Teleport makes it simple for organizations to extend access control into AI systems, turning AI security into a core pillar of business strategy. Our approach not only strengthens infrastructure resiliency but enables companies to move faster, innovate confidently, and scale securely.”
Guardrail for AI infrastructure
As demand for infrastructure identity continues to grow, Teleport is firmly positioned to become a much-needed guardrail for AI infrastructure in data centers. This empowers customers to innovate quickly and adopt new technologies while simultaneously strengthening security.
Now in its third year, the Fortune Cyber 60 list celebrates the pioneers changing the game at every funding stage. This year, Fortune partnered with Lightspeed and sponsor, Amazon Web Services (AWS) to spotlight the most innovative and fastest-growing companies in cybersecurity.
