Moderate Setup (1-3 hours)

You can use Keycloak to add authentication and single sign-on to your applications without building login systems from scratch. It handles user storage, authentication, and authorization across multiple apps. Users log in once and access all connected applications. You can connect existing user directories like LDAP or Active Directory, enable social login through Google or Facebook, and manage user permissions from a central admin console. It supports standard protocols like OpenID Connect, OAuth 2.0, and SAML.
