Microsoft Presidio SSH Access Proxy: Secure, Streamlined SSH Access

Presidio’s SSH Access Proxy is built to secure and streamline how teams connect to systems over SSH. It sits between the user and the target host, enforcing identity verification, logging session activity, and applying granular permissions without exposing direct network access. The proxy approach limits attack surfaces and eliminates unmanaged SSH keys that can linger unnoticed.

Configuring Microsoft Presidio SSH Access Proxy means defining trusted entry points. You integrate it with your identity provider, map users to roles, and set explicit policies for command execution or file transfer. Every session runs through the proxy, with full capture for audit trails. You gain visibility without sacrificing speed.

This architecture supports compliance mandates by ensuring all SSH activity is recorded and tied to authenticated identities. It prevents lateral movement through internal networks and closes gaps that traditional SSH key distribution leaves open. You don’t need to rework your hosts — the proxy handles the handshake and enforces controls before the connection reaches the target.

For engineering teams, Microsoft Presidio SSH Access Proxy solves two constant problems: preventing unauthorized access and proving authorized activity. It works across cloud, on-prem, and hybrid environments. It scales without forcing manual key rotation or untracked bastion hosts.

The result is simple: controlled, auditable SSH access from one central point. Fast when you need it, locked when you don’t.
