Show HN: Torii – a framework agnostic authentication library for Rust

All true, but glosses over a lot of nuance and wide variety of contexts, particularly B2B.

We’re likely going to switch to Cognito because maintaining OIDC auth has been a pretty big cost for a small company. IdP configurability in particular is painful both technically and in customer support.

One downside to Cognito/etc though is while they’ll handle the tech side (Okta notwithstanding), it’s still up to you to troubleshoot and configure and integrate correctly. Lots of opportunities to “solve” the security risks, but hurt customer and user experience in the process.

I'm the founder of WorkOS and we solve this problem for developers, primarily focusing on the challenges around enterprise SAML, SCIM, complex RBAC, fine-grained authorization, and more.

We build the Admin Portal for IdP configuration: https://workos.com/admin-portal

WorkOS actually launched on HN about 5 years ago[0] and today it's used by OpenAI, Cursor, Perplexity, and hundreds of other companies.

Feel free to email me if I can help: [email protected]
