Tailscale for DevOps: On-demand access to your Tailscale resources with Opal

Tailscale and Opal have partnered to streamline on-demand access to resources in environments with strict compliance requirements by implementing the principle of least privilege. Tailscale ACLs enable organizations to define and restrict access, but the partnership with Opal allows for temporary, self-serve access requests, facilitating faster resource availability without manual intervention. Opal allows administrators to manage SSH access rules, automate approval processes, and define access durations, enhancing security and efficiency. The integration also supports user and group provisioning through Okta, enabling seamless onboarding and automated access management, which can be tailored to organizational needs, such as on-call schedules.
