Authenticating the connection is not the same as authorizing everything that happens inside it.
Compare Delinea and Teleport across infrastructure access, identity-based access, privileged access, Kubernetes and SSH access, session controls and runtime authorization.
Delinea’s runtime authorization stays in the path for the life of the session, authorizing every action as it happens. Teleport authenticates the connection and can lock or moderate the session, but it does not authorize the individual actions taken inside it.

Delinea delivers one platform built for the way modern enterprises actually run
Easier to implement - Easier to use – Easier to manage
The Delinea Platform serves both traditional PAM and modern workload-access buyers through one identity,
one policy, and one audit. CyberArk (now Idira) ties your choice of vault to Palo Alto Networks' broader SOC and security platform commitment.
Delinea extends access control into continuous, in-session authorization across AI agents, humans and machines.

Delinea is consistently recognized for requiring fewer resources to manage and less time to achieve full functionality.
Delinea ships ephemeral access with proxy injection, JIT entitlement, and full session recording for human, machine, and AI agent identities - today.
Delinea centralizes authorization with runtime enforcement across every AI agent in your stack.
Delinea is consistently recognized for requiring fewer resources to manage and less time to achieve full functionality, and it works with the stack you already run.
Delinea ships ephemeral access with proxy injection, JIT entitlement, runtime authorizations and full session recording for AI agent, human and machine identities, with each action authorized at runtime and the credential never exposed.
Delinea centralizes authorization with runtime enforcement across every AI agent in your stack, authorizing each action as it happens rather than monitoring it after.
Industry leaders and innovative disruptors agree: Our PAM solutions are the easiest to try, buy, implement and own.
With Delinea, privileged access is more accessible.












Delinea brokers and controls access sessions across your infrastructure, injecting credentials at the point of connection instead of handing them out, all through one identity, one policy, and one audit trail. Teleport authenticates the connection with certificate-based identity and can lock or moderate the session, but it does not authorize the individual action. Credentials are injected at the moment of connection and revoked the instant the task ends — nothing is left standing for an attacker to find.
Delinea centralizes authorization across AI agent, human and machine identities, enforcing it at runtime instead of reviewing it after the fact.
