Before you switch
Security tools deserve extra scrutiny — you are trusting them with sensitive data. Prefer projects with published audits, two-factor or SSO support, and clear documentation of their threat model. Keep them updated; an unpatched security tool is worse than none.
Like every project listed on SelfHosted, nforwardauth is developed in the open — you can read the code, follow development, and even contribute. Check the system requirements and the project’s own documentation linked on this page before installing.
