About Engity's Bifröst

Bifröst from Engity is a self-hosted control panel for managing SSH and database connections across your infrastructure. It gives teams a centralized web interface to connect to servers and databases without handling private keys or credentials directly. The tool supports SSH tunneling, session recording, and audit logging so you can track who accessed what and when.

Bifröst integrates with common identity providers like LDAP and OIDC, and it can connect to PostgreSQL and MySQL databases through its built-in proxy. SSH connections support agent forwarding and can be restricted to specific hosts or commands. The session recordings are stored as video files that can be replayed in the browser. Everything runs in Docker on Linux.

This project is a good fit for DevOps teams or small IT shops that want basic access control and accountability without the complexity of a full PAM suite. Engity offers it under the AGPL license, so you can use it freely if you share your modifications. Bifröst is relatively new but active on GitHub.
