What is AccessGate

You need to manage ssh keys for a project requiring multiple servers and groups, without having to manage them manually? This project lets you manage multiple servers with group permissions (server <-> group <-> user) from a clean, efficient web interface with github authentication for simpler management/security.

Few key points:

• Automatic key update when access is modified
• Permissions assigned to groups for more global management
• Restricted access per user, or with a single login on servers
