Teleport is positioned as an open source, modern drop-in replacement for OpenSSH that also supports Kubernetes access, removing the need for VPNs. Enhanced RBAC and SSO capabilities are also included under the commercial license for enterprise customers. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it. Read it at the original source: ## Questions this post answers ### What new features does Teleport 4.3 add for SSH and Kubernetes access management? Teleport 4.3 introduces a redesigned web UI reaching feature parity with the CLI, a Cluster View for seeing all cloud and computing environments in one place, an expanded Audit Log view showing all security events, and a new plugin API. The plugin API supports privilege escalation workflows with Slack and PagerDuty integrations, letting administrators require approval before elevating a user's role, such as granting temporary database admin access. _Teams evaluating SSH access tools can track releases like Teleport's on daily.dev._ ### How does Teleport's privilege escalation workflow with the new API work in version 4.3? A user requests a privileged role from the command line using 'tsh login --request-roles=dba', which triggers an approval request sent to the security team via Slack or PagerDuty. Once approved, the user proceeds with normal access, such as SSH into a target server, and every action is recorded in the audit log as structured events plus a session recording of keystrokes. _Developers designing access-approval workflows can follow tooling updates like this on daily.dev._ --- Tags: [#kubernetes](https://daily.dev/tags/kubernetes), [#ssh](https://daily.dev/tags/ssh) [View this post on daily.dev](https://daily.dev/posts/teleport-4-3-is-a-modern-replacement-for-openssh-nle2kvthz) ```json {"@context":"https://schema.org","@graph":[{"@type":"Organization","@id":"https://daily.dev/#organization","name":"daily.dev","url":"https://daily.dev","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://daily.dev/apple-touch-icon.png","width":180,"height":180},"sameAs":["https://twitter.com/dailydotdev","https://github.com/dailydotdev","https://www.linkedin.com/company/daily-dev-ltd"]},{"@type":"WebSite","@id":"https://daily.dev/#website","url":"https://daily.dev","name":"daily.dev","publisher":{"@id":"https://daily.dev/#organization"},"potentialAction":{"@type":"SearchAction","target":{"@type":"EntryPoint","urlTemplate":"https://daily.dev/search?q={search_term_string}"},"query-input":"required name=search_term_string"}}]} {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"TechArticle","headline":"Teleport 4.3 is a Modern Replacement for OpenSSH","url":"https://daily.dev/posts/teleport-4-3-is-a-modern-replacement-for-openssh-nle2kvthz","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://daily.dev/posts/teleport-4-3-is-a-modern-replacement-for-openssh-nle2kvthz"},"datePublished":"2026-08-23T12:23:04.513Z","dateModified":"2026-08-23T12:55:13.480Z","description":"Teleport 4.3 launches with a redesigned web UI reaching feature parity with the CLI, a Cluster View for managing multiple cloud and computing environments, an...","image":"https://media.daily.dev/image/upload/s--CxzD6vbw--/f_auto/v1722860399/public/Placeholder%2005","thumbnailUrl":"https://media.daily.dev/image/upload/s--CxzD6vbw--/f_auto/v1722860399/public/Placeholder%2005","isAccessibleForFree":true,"articleSection":"Teleport","inLanguage":"en","publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"daily.dev","url":"https://daily.dev","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://daily.dev/apple-touch-icon.png","width":180,"height":180}},"author":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Teleport","logo":"https://media.daily.dev/image/upload/s--Dw-Bbw6O--/c_limit,w_256/f_auto,q_auto/v1787487494/logos/teleport?_a=BAMAMicg0","url":"https://daily.dev/sources/teleport"},"commentCount":0,"discussionUrl":"https://daily.dev/posts/teleport-4-3-is-a-modern-replacement-for-openssh-nle2kvthz","interactionStatistic":[{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":{"@type":"LikeAction"},"userInteractionCount":0},{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":{"@type":"CommentAction"},"userInteractionCount":0}],"keywords":"kubernetes,ssh","timeRequired":"PT6M"} {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"name":"Home","item":"https://daily.dev"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"name":"Teleport","item":"https://daily.dev/sources/teleport"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":3,"name":"Teleport 4.3 is a Modern Replacement for OpenSSH"}]} {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"FAQPage","@id":"https://daily.dev/posts/teleport-4-3-is-a-modern-replacement-for-openssh-nle2kvthz#faq","mainEntity":[{"@type":"Question","name":"What new features does Teleport 4.3 add for SSH and Kubernetes access management?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"Teleport 4.3 introduces a redesigned web UI reaching feature parity with the CLI, a Cluster View for seeing all cloud and computing environments in one place, an expanded Audit Log view showing all security events, and a new plugin API.
