Synopsis

This repo contains the results of the following challenge:

I need a small web app (a single HTML page) to be available online. The webpage content is 
confidential so I need it to be secured with Basic authentication over TLS.  I also would like to 
support a secret token within the URL as a second authentication factor.  I would like all the 
security verification to take place in a separate container before reaching the container that 
hosts the confidential content.  I need to be able to build the entire solution from Dockerfiles and 
deploy it via Docker Compose. 
 
The credentials that should work are: admin : Password1 
The content should be available at https://<host:port>/uj47G/index.htm
