Vauban is an open source security bastion (PAM), developed in Rust, designed to protect and control access to critical infrastructure across enterprise, industrial, and defense environments. Its architecture leverages proven, cutting-edge technologies: privilege separation inspired by OpenSSH and Capsicum sandboxing, a confinement mechanism developed with funding from DARPA (U.S. Department of Defense). The solution includes multi-factor authentication (MFA), role-based access control (RBAC), full session recording, and real-time monitoring of SSH and RDP connections.
Vauban is the first PAM in the world to offer the ability to control privileged access for AI agents.
Free and sovereignty-friendly, Vauban meets the traceability and audit requirements of sensitive environments while offering an open-source alternative to proprietary solutions.
