How Authelia Performs Multi-Factor Authentication
Authelia sits between your reverse proxy and the apps behind it, intercepting requests and performing auth checks before forwarding traffic, giving you true MFA that can be integrated with something like Google Authenticator, or Yubikey/Titan key, etc…
Stop exposing unsecured apps. Learn how to deploy Authelia in Docker with a KeyDB backend and SWAG to enforce centralized Multi-Factor Authentication.
Setting up Authelia can be a bit intensive at first, but very worth the payoff / time and effort!
Disclaimers: I’m the author & run this exact setup, in production for myself. It’s a “battle tested” setup, which has been in use for a few years now. Written & verified by a human!

Honestly, the one major thing I want from Authelia is the ability to add to it without deauthenticating the entire userbase.
Well, that and an easier way to organize than everything in one single file…
