FIPS Support (Federal Information Processing Standards)

S-Drive supports FIPS endpoints for AWS buckets in North America. https://aws.amazon.com/compliance/fips/

If your bucket is in North America, you’ll see a button on the bucket to enable FIPS. See Managing your Buckets.

Once enabled, you need to add a remote site setting and URL Trusted Sites.

In order to use FIPS some endpoints need to be set up:

• Add a remote site setting (go to Setup-->Remote Site Settings) in the form of

  • bucketname.s3-fips.region.amazonaws.com where bucketname is the name of your bucket and region is the bucket’s region, such as us-east-1.

  • Ex: mybucket.s3-fips.us-east-1.amazonaws.com

• Add Trusted URLS (go to Setup-->Trusted URLs)

  • 1️⃣ https://bucketname.s3-fips.region.amazonaws.com where bucketname is the name of your bucket and region is the bucket’s region, such as us-east-1.

    • Ex: https://mybucket.s3-fips.us-east-1.amazonaws.com
