  • Teleport named an AI infrastructure identity leader in Futuriom 50 for 2026.
  • AI adoption requires new identity management; 69% see need for significant changes.
  • Organisations with least-privileged AI access see 4.5x fewer security incidents.

Teleport has been honoured by being named to the Futuriom 50 (2026) for the second year running, highlighting its role as a leader in AI infrastructure identity.

This achievement underscores Teleport's significant influence in the security sector, especially regarding identity management for AI and cloud infrastructure.

Innovative approach to security

Scott Raynovich, Founder and Principal Analyst at Futuriom, acknowledged Teleport's innovative methods in identity-based security. “Teleport is a leading innovator in identity-based security for managing infrastructure, cloud, and AI access, offering a unified platform for human and machine users and an Agentic Identity Framework for securing AI agents. Teleport's real-time 'chain of custody' offers a unique opinionated approach to identity security that helps customers navigate AI adoption complexities,” said Raynovich.

This reflects Teleport’s commitment to providing a cohesive security platform that supports both human and machine interactions in a digital environment.

Identity management and AI integration

Teleport’s recognition reflects the need to rethink identity management as AI becomes integral to securityThe recognition of Teleport aligns with a growing understanding that incorporating AI into security systems necessitates a redefined approach to identity management. According to Teleport’s 2026 State of AI in Enterprise Infrastructure Security report, a significant 69% of participants indicated that AI adoption would drive major shifts in identity management practices.

Additionally, the survey observed that organisations implementing least-privileged access for AI systems experienced 4.5 times fewer security incidents, reporting a 17% incident rate compared to 76% where over-privileged access was used.

Facilitating secure AI implementation

Teleport enhances the security of AI adoption through creating a unified identity layer that covers infrastructure entities such as humans, machines, workloads, and AI agents, all secured by cryptographic methods. By substituting fragmented identity and access management frameworks with Infrastructure Identity, Teleport applies zero trust security principles effectively across both cloud and on-premises environments.

This endeavour aims to mitigate identity-related threats, fast-track engineering processes, and secure AI integration within enterprises.
