+## Security
+
+The Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS) 140 is a US government standard that defines minimum security requirements for cryptographic modules in information technology products and systems. Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) allows the creation of node pools with FIPS 140-2 enabled. Deployments running on FIPS-enabled node pools provide increased security and help meet security controls as part of FedRAMP compliance. For more information on FIPS 140-2, see [Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS) 140](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/compliance/offerings/offering-fips-140-2).
+
+To enable the FIPS support in your subscription, you first need to accept the legal terms of the `Ubuntu Pro FIPS 20.04 LTS` image that will be used in the deployment. For details see [Ubuntu Pro FIPS 20.04 LTS](https://azuremarketplace.microsoft.com/en-us/marketplace/apps/canonical.0001-com-ubuntu-pro-focal-fips?tab=Overview).
+
+To accept the terms please run following az command before deploying cluster:
+
+```bash
+az vm image terms accept --urn Canonical:0001-com-ubuntu-pro-focal-fips:pro-fips-20_04-gen2:latest --subscription $subscription_id
