Tell us about your request Please create an Image Builder component that enables FIPS mode on Amazon Linux 2023. Instructions for doing this on Amazon Linux 2 are available here: https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/publicsector/enabling-fips-mode-amazon-linux-2/. Amazon Linux 2023 instructions are unavailable yet.

Tell us about the problem you're trying to solve. What are you trying to do, and why is it hard? Configuring FIPS mode on Amazon Linux requires additional steps as outlined in the link above. Having Image Builder be able to do this on the image without having to create a custom script would be beneficial.

Are you currently working around this issue? Using custom scripting to enable FIPS mode currently.
