## Protecting IT Tools with TinyAuth
Add [TinyAuth](/serveex/security/tinyauth)'s forward-auth check directly to `tools.subdomain.conf`, the same way as [the TinyAuth guide](/serveex/security/tinyauth#protecting-an-app-via-reverse-proxy):
```nginx [tools.subdomain.conf]{26-38,41-42}

::note
The `location /tinyauth` block runs inside SWAG's own container, so SWAG needs to be on TinyAuth's Docker network to reach it by name (`tinyauth` here). This should already be set up from [exposing TinyAuth itself](/serveex/security/tinyauth#exposing-tinyauth-with-swag). If you run into an error, double-check SWAG's compose file still has that network attached.

✨ __Tip:__ You can secure this app with [TinyAuth](/serveex/security/tinyauth) and [Pocket ID](/serveex/security/pocket-id) using the reverse-proxy pattern from the TinyAuth guide, or with Authentik by opening `tools.subdomain.conf` and uncommenting the lines `include /config/nginx/authentik-server.conf;` and `include /config/nginx/authentik-location.conf;`. Dont forget to [create an application and a provider in Authentik](/serveex/advanced/authentik#protecting-an-app-via-reverse-proxy).
