Summary

Authentik Security is a public benefit company that builds on top of the open source authentik Identity Provider project, aiming to unify identity needs into a single platform. The company has standardized various processes and tools such as release management, change control, naming conventions for pull requests, infrastructure, frontend development, documentation, team hardware, and onboarding, which have helped improve efficiency and consistency. However, Authentik Security also values flexibility and allows for fluid processes and roles where it makes sense, ensuring that the team can pick up work beyond their job descriptions and find the right level of process and guardrails to reduce cognitive load.
