StrongDM Access

StrongDM Access is a zero trust infrastructure access management solution designed to provide software engineering and operations teams with frictionless, secure access to databases, servers, cloud consoles, and internal clusters. Traditional enterprise access methods such as static VPNs, legacy jump boxes, and hardcoded connection strings slow down developer workflows and create severe security risks through overprivileged access and credential leakage. StrongDM Access eliminates these issues by integrating directly with enterprise identity providers like Okta, Microsoft Entra ID, and Google Workspace to enforce dynamic, role-based access controls for infrastructure endpoints. Engineers connect using their preferred native tools—including standard database GUIs, terminal command lines, SSH clients, and kubectl—while StrongDM Access intercepts and authenticates traffic transparently in the background. The solution manages credential vaulting and rotation automatically, ensuring administrators never handle static credentials or expose private IP addresses. Access can be granted dynamically via automated Slack or Jira approval workflows, ensuring access is ephemeral and automatically revoked after task completion. StrongDM Access eliminates access friction, improves developer productivity, and safeguards sensitive corporate systems from unauthorized exposure.
