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!

Very nice site set up man. Looks like a lot of good info and a lot of work involved. I too use Authelia as an added security step. I have your site bookmarked and will peruse it’s contents in a bit. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you for taking a peek!

You bet. So far, it’s an enjoyable read.
