Description

It would be great to build FIPS compliant images for American government agencies and contractors. The scratch image is a good start. We need to meet other requirement like working with FIPS OpenSSL.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate how to build FIPS compliant Docker images using the scratch base image and FIPS validated OpenSSL. Look into existing solutions and SPIFFE/SPIRE’s build system.
