Having your own password table even feels archaic today. From what I've seen, even simple internal apps are doing SSO with a directory provider (Google, AD/ADB2C, Okta, etc.)

I mean, it's stored in a DB somewhere, even if it's not your own. I would argue your own DB probably has less of an attack vector than major providers.
