Keycloak server in FIPS mode in the container
---------------------------------------------
When you want Keycloak in FIPS mode to be executed inside container, it is needed that your "host" is using FIPS mode as well. The container
will then "inherit" FIPS mode from the parent host. See this docs for the details in the RHEL documentation:
https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux/9/html/security_hardening/using-the-system-wide-cryptographic-policies_security-hardening#enabling-fips-mode-in-a-container_using-the-system-wide-cryptographic-policies
So keycloak container image will be just automatically in fips mode when executed from the host in FIPS mode. So only things needed is to
make sure that Keycloak container also uses BCFIPS jars (instead of BC jars) and proper options when started.
Regarding this, it is likely best to build your own container image based on the official keycloak image and tweak it to use BCFIPS etc. For
inspiration, you can take a look at the GH project https://github.com/mposolda/keycloak-fips-image, which does pretty much what is described in
this README file above, and allows to consume this in the container
#### TODO: When we convert this README into official docs, we should likely avoid using this GH project, but somehow describe it better as for example here: https://www.keycloak.org/server/containers
Run the unit tests in the FIPS environment
------------------------------------------
This instruction is about running automated tests on the FIPS enabled RHEL 8.6 system with the FIPS enabled OpenJDK 11.
