Moving from Google workspace to Microsoft 365 and implementing Zero Trust
That is not how you do Zero Trust. You want to use an Identity Aware Proxy. There are lots of ways you can implement this with Google as your core auth. For example Pomerium or oauth2-proxy.
-
Which reverse proxy are you using?
Iβm really surprised this sub has no love for Pomerium. I feel like itβs as simple as Caddy with all the security benefits of Traefik.

What is the best way to implement an SSO for several existing web apps?
Just want to drop https://www.pomerium.com/ here. We use it at our company with ~1500 people with many apps behind the proxy. It also supports JWT for the backend, so you can integrate your apps easily without having to worry about the OAuth flow and also your apps are protected from random internet attacks.

Tailscale Authentication for Nginx
You might just want to integrate a policy rules engine like open policy agent: https://www.openpolicyagent.org/ It can act as a server which you bounce a subrequest against to get an authorization answer from a policy you defined ahead of time with a simple language.
And if you don't have time or want to do that, check out Pomerium it's basically a forward auth proxy with OPA policy engine integrated into it already: https://www.pomerium.com/

Add Password Protection to Any Site with OAuth2 Proxy - Plus Social Logins
If oauth2-proxy doesn't suit your needs, there are some projects that have spun-off from oauth2-proxy like pomerium and BuzzFeed's sso. In addition to the open source library, Pomerium offers a paid service with a GUI to help IT staff more easily manage user permissions. BuzzFeed's sso builds upon oauth2-proxy by separating the domain used for auth from the domain used for the proxy (among several other changes).

Pomerium now supports hardware-backed device identity via WebAuthn
I'm one of the maintainers of an open source identity aware access proxy called Pomerium. We just released v0.16 which includes a bunch of new features, but there's one in particular that has been in the works for months which I'm really excited about and wanted to share. In short, Pomerium now supports incorporating device identity into your access policies.

a selfhostable, dockerable service that has some sort of API to automatic insert links: suggestion?
As for authentication, I'd recommend splitting the authentication from the dashboard by putting a reverse proxy in front of the dashboard service. You can then use these credentials for the other services that the dashboard links to. Which one to use is highly dependent or your setup, so I'll just throw some self-hostable authentication proxies out here (haven't used any of them): Authelia, Dex, Pomerium

Securing Vue Apps with Keycloak
In this article we'll be using Keycloak to secure a Vue.js Web application. We're going to leverage oidc-client-ts to integrate OIDC authentication with the Vue app. The oidc-client-ts package is a well-maintained and used library. It provides a lot of utilities for building out a fully production app.

Top 6 Open Source Identity and Access Management (IAM) Solutions For Enterprises
KeyCloak is a Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) project that offers enterprise IAM solutions. Keycloak emphasizes proficient enterprise authorization solutions by providing:
-
Outline: Self hostable, realtime, Markdown compatible knowledge base
Outline only uses SSO for authentication. The solution when self hosting is use a private keycloak server [1]. This allows you to do email based auth.

Keycloak open redirect: wildcard redirect URIs can be exploited to steal tokens
> Keycloak was good but has too much legacy for 10+ years.
I got curious, actually seems to check out and explains why it's so well documented (but also complex and oftentimes confusing):
> The first production release of Keycloak was in September 2014, with development having started about a year earlier.

What Is OIDC?
> Don't outsource either your authentication or authorization. Run it in-house.
This is hard to do, though. I hope people here will drop a lot of combinations that work for them!
Personally, for a small/medium scale project, I went with:
Keycloak: https://www.keycloak.org/
It supports various backing RDBMSes (like PostgreSQL, MariaDB/MySQL and others), allows both users that you persist in your own DB, as well as various external sources, like social login across various platforms, is an absolute pain to configure and sometimes acts in stupid ways behind a reverse proxy, but has most of the features that you might ever want, which sadly comes coupled with some complexity and an enterprise feeling.
I quite like that it offers the login/registration views that you need with redirects, as well as user management, storing roles/permissions and other custom attributes. It's on par with what you'd expect and should serve you nicely.
mod_auth_openidc: https://github.com/OpenIDC/mod_auth_openidc
This one's a certified OpenID Connect Relying Party implementation for... Apache2/httpd.
Some might worry about the performance and there are other options out there (like a module for OpenResty, which is built on top of Nginx), but when coupled with mod_md Apache makes for a great reverse proxy/ingress for my personal needs.
The benefit here is that I don't need 10 different implementations for each service/back end language that's used, I can outsource the heavy lifting to mod_auth_openidc (protected paths, needed roles/permissions, redirect URLs, token renewal and other things) and just read a few trusted headers behind the reverse proxy if further checks are needed, which is easy in all technologies.
That said, the configuration there is also hard and annoying to do, as is working with OpenID Connect in general, even though you can kind of understand why that complexity is inherent. Here's a link with some certified implementations, by the way: https://openid.net/developers/certified-openid-connect-imple...
Keycloak [1]. Rock solid, supports everything, trusted everywhere.

Auth0 increases price by 300%
You couldn't pay me to use their bullshit...if you need an identity server/provider go with Keycloak. Open source, free, and standards based, works better and scales better too.
