ADC-FIPS Overview

Secure your stack with a hardened ADC-FIPS image freshly-built by Minimus. Minimus images always include the most up-to-date package version for all packages and dependencies.

ADC (API Declarative CLI) is a command-line tool for managing API7 Enterprise and Apache APISIX configurations as code. It supports declarative workflows including syncing local configuration to a backend, diffing live vs. local state, dumping existing configuration, converting OpenAPI specs, and linting configuration files locally.

FIPS 140-3 Certification

This image is FIPS-validated to ensure its cryptographic operations meet the Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS) required for secure government and regulated environments. Its core cryptographic modules are validated under the NIST Cryptographic Module Validation Program (CMVP) and comply with the FIPS 140-3 standard.

To verify that the FIPS 140-3 provider is configured and active, follow the instructions in the FIPS compliance tab.

Try It Out

You can use the Minimus ADC-FIPS image to lint a local configuration file without connecting to a backend. Save the following to adc.yaml:

services:
  - name: my-service
    upstream:
      name: my-upstream
      nodes:
        - host: httpbin.org
          port: 80
          weight: 1
    routes:
      - name: my-route
        uris:
          - /get
        methods:
          - GET

Then run the linter against it:

docker run --rm \
-v $(pwd)/adc.yaml:/adc.yaml \
reg.mini.dev/adc-fips \
lint --file /adc.yaml

You should see a confirmation such as:

[9:17:15 AM] [ADC] › ✔  success   Lint configuration
[9:17:15 AM] [ADC] › ★  star      All is well, see you next time!

To verify connectivity to a live backend, use the ping command with your backend address:

docker run --rm \
reg.mini.dev/adc-fips \
ping --backend api7ee --server https://<your-api7-host>

Technical Considerations

The ADC-FIPS image provided by Minimus is a slim, security-hardened alternative to the public image from Docker Hub. The images are largely interchangeable, with a few differences as noted below.

ADC-FIPS built by Minimus:

Runs as root to support required functions in alignment with the public image.
Drill down on the version specification tab to see the default user, listening ports, entrypoint, volumes, environment variables, etc.

The Payoff

A hardened, minimal image that will remain more secure for the long run and accrue vulnerabilities at a slower rate.

See the risk reduction dashboard for a detailed CVE comparison over the past 30 days.
Review the compliance report to see the default hardening and security configurations for the image.
