Disable the system policy that requires FIPS compliant algorithms if you encounter all of the following issues:
  • Unable to log on to the SecureCloud Central Management Console
  • Debug log shows:
    ERROR SecureCloud.BrokerMvc - User Auth Failed Due to internalerrorSystem.InvalidOperationException: This implementation is not part of the Windows Platform FIPS validated cryptographic algorithms.

The change takes effect after the local security policy is re-applied. You can then log on to the SecureCloud CMC.
