HSM Ingress Controller by Strid Tech

Strid Tech

Ingress that integrates with AKV or mHSM to handle TLS offload in AKS for FIPS 140-3 compliance

The Ingress Controller that makes AKS cluster comply with FIPS 140-3. By offloading TLS termination to Azure KeyVault (with non-exportable keys) or Azure Managed HSM, the keys stay secure as required by FIPS 140-3 up to level 3.

Extra Azure resources needed are:
  • Azure KeyVault or Azure Managed HSM
  • Service Account with access to the above
  • A AKS cluster

The Ingress Controller is fully compatible with the open source nginx-ingress and can be configured the same ways for easy replacement of your current solution.

To be FIPS compliant you must use non-exportable keys. Read more about Key Vault and FIPS compliance in the links.
