Chronograf-FIPS Overview
Secure your stack with a FIPS-validated, hardened Chronograf image freshly-built by Minimus. Minimus images always include the most up-to-date package version for all packages and dependencies contained in the image.
Chronograf is a visualization tool for time series data in InfluxDB. It is the UI component of the TICK stack alongside Telegraf, InfluxDB, and Kapacitor, providing a single place to explore data, build dashboards, and manage users and alert rules. Use this image when you need to meet the requirements for FIPS-validated cryptographic protection.
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
Start Chronograf and expose the web UI on port 8888:
docker run --rm -d \
--name chronograf-test \
-p 8888:8888 \
reg.mini.dev/chronograf-fipsConfirm the server is responding:
curl -I http://localhost:8888Visit http://localhost:8888 in a browser to reach the setup wizard, where you connect Chronograf to an InfluxDB instance and, optionally, a Kapacitor instance for alerting.
Technical Considerations
The Chronograf-FIPS image provided by Minimus is a FIPS-validated, slim, security-hardened alternative to the public image.
Chronograf-FIPS built by Minimus:
- Runs as root to support required functions in alignment with the public image.
- Listens on port 8888/TCP by default but does not expose the port. The public image listens on and exposes the same port by default.
- 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.
