FIPS mode must be enabled.
High Severity
<VulnDiscussion>During any user authentication, MKE must use FIPS-validated SHA-2 or later protocol to protect the integrity of the password authentication process. FIPS mode enforces the use of cryptographic algorithms and modules. This ensures a higher level of cryptographic security, reducing the risk of vulnerabilities related to cryptographic functions. FIPS-compliant cryptographic modules are designed to provide strong protection for sensitive data. Enabling FIPS mode helps safeguard cryptographic operations, securing data both at rest and in transit within containerized applications.</VulnDiscussion><FalsePositives></FalsePositives><FalseNegatives></FalseNegatives><Documentable>false</Documentable><Mitigations></Mitigations><SeverityOverrideGuidance></SeverityOverrideGuidance><PotentialImpacts></PotentialImpacts><ThirdPartyTools></ThirdPartyTools><MitigationControl></MitigationControl><Responsibility></Responsibility><IAControls></IAControls>
