Digiface

Self-Hosted

Open-source digital identity management tool for self-hosted environments

Overview

Digiface is an open-source tool for managing digital identities, credentials, and access permissions in self-hosted setups. It offers secure storage for passwords, API keys, and identity documents with end-to-end encryption, plus integration with self-hosted services like Nextcloud and Jellyfin for single-sign-on (SSO). Deploy via Docker Compose or bare-metal; it includes multi-factor authentication (MFA), role-based access control (RBAC), and audit logs to track identity activity. Lightweight and customizable, it’s ideal for individuals or small teams seeking privacy-focused identity management without third-party SaaS reliance.

Frequently Asked Questions

? Is Digiface hard to install?

Digiface is designed for simplicity—use the official Docker Compose file to launch it in minutes. Bare-metal setups require basic Linux skills, but detailed documentation guides you through dependencies like PostgreSQL and Nginx reverse proxy.

? Is it a good alternative to Okta Identity Cloud?

Yes, for self-hosted users prioritizing privacy and control. Unlike Okta (a SaaS), Digiface runs on your server, but it lacks enterprise-grade features like advanced user provisioning for large teams.

? Is it completely free?

Digiface is 100% open-source under the MIT License—no paid tiers, hidden costs, or subscription fees. You can modify and distribute it freely.
