Unlocking new workflows with Tailscale and GitHub Actions
In this on-demand session, Lee Briggs from Tailscale shows how to combine Tailscale with GitHub Actions to securely connect managed runners to private infrastructure. You’ll see how teams use this integration to automate database migrations, run integration tests, and push artifacts without exposing internal systems.
Lee walks through the latest updates to the Tailscale GitHub Action, now rewritten in TypeScript for faster setup and better reliability. He also demonstrates how OIDC Federation between GitHub and Tailscale removes the need for long-lived credentials, making CI/CD pipelines safer and easier to manage.
You’ll learn:
- How to connect GitHub Actions workflows to private resources using Tailscale
- How ephemeral devices and OIDC Federation improve security and simplify automation
- Real examples of database migrations, integration tests, and CI/CD tasks running inside a Tailnet
- How the TypeScript rewrite improves speed and reliability

Moving Beyond the Honor System: How to Use Fleet Device Health to Control Tailscale Access
Most organizations have the data to know if a laptop is unencrypted or out of date. The problem? That data often lives on a dashboard, while your network access remains wide open. The only way to secure access is to stop trusting devices by default.
Join Allen Valliencourt (Tailscale) and Zach Wasserman (Fleet) to see how Fleet device data can directly control access in Tailscale. We’ll show how to turn device health signals into enforcement so access is earned.
If you’re already using Fleet to monitor your fleet and Tailscale to connect it, you’re ready to enforce device-level access. In this session, we’ll walk through:
- How Fleet device state (via osquery) feeds into Tailscale posture checks
- How device signals—like disk encryption, OS version, and MDM enrollment—map to Tailscale ACLs
- How access is revoked in real time when a device falls out of compliance
Tailscale & AWS: Enterprise Cloud Networking Simplified
In this webinar, we will cover how to connect to your AWS resources easily and securely with Tailscale modernized networking, powered by WireGuard®
With Tailscale + AWS, you can:
- Simplify AWS Connectivity by using Tailscale to reduce the complexity of managing secure remote access to the Amazon resources that power your organization.
- Increase Security for AWS Access by enabling secure remote access from AWS VPC to EC2 instances, IP-based connectivity via subnet routing, exposing services in your EKS clusters and control plane to your tailnet.
- Achieve high-availability failover, seamlessly connect across availability zones, and deliver persistent resource monitoring and session recording to support compliance goals.

JIT Network Access: Demo and Q&A
Just-in-time (JIT) Network Access is an API-first solution to provide temporary, time-bound, and audited elevated access to resources within your Tailscale network (tailnet). Up until this point, JIT access with Tailscale has required the purchase of an additional dedicated 3rd party JIT solution to manage, or meant cobbling together different parts of the product to build a very manual version of JIT access.
That's no longer the case. Join Alex and Allen as they demo how to use our API to set up Just-in-time access and then answer your questions.
