Smallstep and Fleet have announced a partnership to enhance device identity management, allowing organizations to verify device trust before granting access to corporate resources. The solution utilizes automated certificate-based workflows for secure access to Wi-Fi, VPN, and other applications while reducing user friction.

Features include dynamic access policies based on device posture, non-exportable client certificates, and short-lived credentials for automation. The integration supports Zero Trust architecture and is designed for cross-platform fleet management, thereby closing security gaps associated with unmanaged Linux devices. Deployment options include on-premises and cloud solutions.
