    2. An identity aware SSO proxy by Buzzfeed[0]

    I really like Buzzfeed's SSO implementation, but it hasn't received updates in a while and doesn't seem to be maintained to me. I could absolutely see OpenZiti replacing this for me.

    I really like Wireguard and have absolutely no complaints with it -- but if OpenZiti could replace this as well and match the performance I get on Wireguard I would consider implementing it at home (and would probably be a happy enough customer to push for it at work).

    One non-typical use-case I use Wireguard for is being able to do remote game streaming to my Windows hosts via Moonlight+Nvidia Gamestream. Would anyone be able to (anecdotally or scientifically), share how well a use-case like this would work with OpenZiti?

    In addition to this suggestion, another viable route is to self-host those applications you rely on and don't expose them to the world (so as to reduce load/attack surface). Using a VPN can allow you to access the applications privately/remotely.

    e.g. I self-host the applications I rely on such as Teddit, Nitter, Bibliogram and Cloudtube and then use Wireguard to always remain connected to the network they are accessible on. I have also implemented identity-aware SSO[1] so I can expose those applications remotely to specific individuals.

  • Add Password Protection to Any Site with OAuth2 Proxy - Plus Social Logins
    7 projects | dev.to | 14 Feb 2022
    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).
