WorkOS
The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
-
Ockam
Orchestrate end-to-end encryption, cryptographic identities, mutual authentication, and authorization policies between distributed applications – at massive scale.
disclosure: I work at Ockam.
The Portals for Mac app is an example of the type of thing you could build using the open source stack of protocols. The README (linked by parent) links out to all of the relevant parts of the protocol documentation to explain how these work together. The NAT Traversal (https://github.com/build-trust/ockam/blob/develop/examples/a...) part of the README is probably the best explanation of why the free relay you get via Ockam Orchestrator is a useful part of this demo.
As for why would anyone trust this: The protocols are designed so you absolutely don't have to trust the relay. Trust is pushed out to the edges that you control and so you're not susceptible to a MITM attack if something like a relay is compromised. The protocol design for all of this is open and documented, and was independently audited by (IMO) some of the best in the business, Trail of Bits: https://docs.ockam.io/reference/protocols.
-
Pomerium
Pomerium is an identity and context-aware reverse proxy for zero-trust access to web applications and services.
Option 3: Pomerium might be an alternative as well.

Project mention: Is it normal for a jwt made with c#/.net to contain these url's? | /r/csharp | 2023-05-11
-
-
I did something similar, though picked Apache with mod_auth_openidc, which is a certified Relying Party implementation: https://github.com/OpenIDC/mod_auth_openidc
In other words, I can protect arbitrary applications through my reverse proxy and require either certain claims/roles, or simplify auth to the point where my downstream app/API will just receive a bunch of headers like OIDC_CLAIM_sub, OIDC_CLAIM_name, OIDC_CLAIM_email through the internal network, not making me bother with configuring OIDC libraries for all of my APIs and configure them in each stack that I might use, but rather contain all of that complexity in the web server.
Basically:
user <==> Apache (with mod_auth_openidc) <==> API (with OIDC_ headers, if logged in)
