Chapter 1. Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS) readiness and compliance
The Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS) developed by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is regarded as the highly regarded for securing and encrypting sensitive data, notably in highly regulated areas such as banking, healthcare, and the public sector. Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) and OpenShift Container Platform support FIPS by providing a FIPS mode, in which the system only allows usage of specific FIPS-validated cryptographic modules like openssl. This ensures FIPS compliance.
1.1. Enabling FIPS compliance
Use the following procedure to enable FIPS compliance on your Red Hat Quay deployment.
Prerequisite
- If you are running a standalone deployment of Red Hat Quay, your Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) deployment is version 8 or later and FIPS-enabled.
- If you are deploying Red Hat Quay on OpenShift Container Platform, OpenShift Container Platform is version 4.10 or later.
- Your Red Hat Quay version is 3.5.0 or later.
If you are using the Red Hat Quay on OpenShift Container Platform on an IBM Power or IBM Z cluster:
- OpenShift Container Platform version 4.14 or later is required
- Red Hat Quay version 3.10 or later is required
- You have administrative privileges for your Red Hat Quay deployment.
Procedure
In your Red Hat Quay
config.yamlfile, set theFEATURE_FIPSconfiguration field totrue. For example:--- FEATURE_FIPS = true ---
With
FEATURE_FIPSset totrue, Red Hat Quay runs using FIPS-compliant hash functions.
