Teleport Launches Beams to Provide Trusted Runtimes for AI Agents in Production Infrastructure

Teleport announced Beams, a trusted runtime designed to solve the security and identity access management challenges that block teams from running AI agents in production infrastructure.

Beams runs each agent in an isolated Firecracker VM with built-in identity. Each Beam has policy-controlled, tracked and auditable access to trusted data sources, infrastructure and inference services without requiring secrets or shared credentials. The platform provides ephemeral, isolated environments that are fast to start, locked down and integrated with Teleport’s identity and audit trails.

Beams inherit delegated identity so they can authenticate to registered services and inference endpoints with fine-grained networking control over external and internal services. Every action is audited, giving teams full visibility into what agents access and when.

The product is designed for a range of agentic use cases, from internal agents that need access to production services to agentic ephemeral workflows where developers build against staging without exposing secrets to multi-agent production pipelines requiring hardened, reproducible isolation.

“Security and IAM requirements interfere with getting AI agents into production. With Beams, security is a prerequisite that’s already solved, so engineers can innovate freely knowing every agent has the identity, access controls and audit trail it needs,” said Alexander Klizhentas, Teleport CTO.

Beams will launch as an MVP on April 30, 2026. Engineers interested in early access can register at beams.run.
