Hospital network policy may limit outbound access or require the product to remain useful during external outages.

For healthcare product teams
Secure sign-in where the product is actually used.
Healthcare products often operate inside customer networks where external dependencies are restricted, unreliable or governed by the provider.

The operating reality
A diagnostic platform installed inside hospital networks
Clinicians and service engineers need reliable access even when the hospital does not permit the product to depend on an external identity service. RustyAuth travels with the product, keeps identity state private to the installation and issues local claims to the diagnostic application.
Product lifecycle
Authentication has to be installed, upgraded, backed up and recovered alongside the product it protects.
Distinct user duties
Clinical, service and administrative responsibilities must remain explicit in the application’s own policy layer.
What the core contributes
Authentication stays small.
The product stays authoritative.
RustyAuth establishes who authenticated and issues narrow claims. Sector-specific systems keep every business decision.
Local operation
Authentication and durable identity state remain within the installed environment.
Multiple credentials
Accounts can enrol labelled passkeys and protect the final credential from accidental removal.
Private integration
Typed identity reads and mutations are available across a private service boundary.
Honest boundary
What this story does—and does not—claim.
Regulated infrastructure earns trust through evidence. These boundaries remain explicit while RustyAuth is pre-release.
RustyAuth does not replace
- Patient identity matching
- Clinical authorisation policy
- Medical-device safety controls
- Regulatory validation or compliance evidence
Production profile requires
- Offline update and support lifecycle
- Qualified recovery and high availability
- Authenticator policy and attestation
- Independent product-security assessment
