I'm currently looking how to protect internal websites used within our company behind github oauth (we're a small company and we all have a github account connected to the company's github organization). Would this or one of the other tools that are part of the ory ecosystem work for this?

Yes, this could definitely solve that. Another service which might be well suited for this specific task is: https://github.com/bitly/oauth2_proxy

CloudFlare has a product for this, at $3/person/month: https://www.cloudflare.com/products/cloudflare-access/

The idea of the ory ecosystem ( https://github.com/ory / https://www.ory.am ) is to build a reliable, cloud native suite of tools which allow you to solve simple and complex IAM (identity and access management) use cases. Each service works standalone, but you can obviously combine them all. The Oathkeeper proxy is one piece of the puzzle which basically takes incoming HTTP requests, evaluates them on a set of rules…

Can ORY Hydra connect to an LDAP (AD) backend? We've got SAML setup here but I'd love to be able to support OpenID Connect too.

Yes, ORY Hydra has a flow that allows you to integrate with any identity solution, be it AD/LDAP, SAML, or your custom database-backed app!

Are you aware that this project shares a name with an extremist group[0]? I'm not sure how concerned you are about that, especially if you're not American, but I'd want to know if it were one of my projects. [0] https://www.splcenter.org/fighting-hate/extremist-files/grou...

It is extremely important to be sensitive to extremism of any kind, condemn extremist practices, beliefs, and views and take a stance against extremist ideologies. We do not share nor endorse extremist views nor "values", nor have anything to do with extremist groups whatsoever. We have not heard about them (Oath Keepers) before. We'll discuss a name change internally & with the community. ps: It also shares the name…

Just to clarify, are you speaking for the team to condemn extremism in general, or the specific belief in upholding the U.S. Constitution within the U.S., or something else?

Maybe I should pay attention to the discussion with the community when that occurs, but I'm interested in which "values" you take issue with. Care to share here?

Oath Keepers is a non-partisan association of current and formerly serving military, police, and first responders, who pledge to fulfill the oath all military and police take to “defend the Constitution against all enemies, foreign and domestic.” That oath, mandated by Article VI of the Constitution itself, is to the Constitution, not to the politicians, and Oath Keepers declare that they will not obey unconstitutional orders, such as orders to disarm the American people, to conduct warrantless searches, or to detain Americans as “enemy combatants” in violation of their ancient right to jury trial. See the Oath Keepers Declaration of Orders We Will Not Obey for details.

The oathkeepers are not an "extremist group". I would humbly suggest that splcenter.org is wrong in this instance.

FWIW, I knew it was a clever reference to the GOT sword after reading the title. It's obvious the project isn't based on or associated with a group using the same common words. Whether they are actually "extremist" is a different matter.
