Case Study: Exness achieves unified Kubernetes and infrastructure security with Teleport

Exness eliminates hundreds of weekly manual approvals with Teleport

Exness, a global FinTech company and one of the world's largest trading technology firms, faced significant security and operational challenges as it rapidly expanded its globally distributed infrastructure. With hundreds of Kubernetes clusters, strict compliance requirements, and fragmented access workflows, their previous manual processes and permanent privileges created bottlenecks and security blind spots. To overcome this, Exness implemented Teleport to establish a unified, secure access layer for its critical assets.

By deploying Teleport Enterprise Edition, Exness created a single, security-owned platform for identity-driven access to Kubernetes clusters, databases, SSH nodes, and CI/CD pipelines. The solution enabled team-based just-in-time access, eliminating hundreds of manual approvals weekly and removing all permanent database credentials. The results for Exness included a dramatically reduced operational load on security and DB teams, more secure CI/CD workflows, the elimination of shadow access paths, and a stronger overall compliance posture, providing a scalable foundation for future growth.
