BackgroundTL;DR: This blog post is a write-up of the process I went through to setup a set of internal web resources and apps for a small company I am running in my spare time ( providing a Single-Sign-On / SSO experience for internal users with web applications protected by flexible access policies including single and multi-factor authentication / two-factor authentication or 2FA).
