Applies to: Centrify Identity Service

Problem:
After installation of the Centrify Cloud Management Suite, the Connection tests for Certificates and Cloud to Proxy Communications checks will fail. Device enrollment attempts will not complete and the following error is displayed: 

"Warning: network environment validation has failed for one or more required portions. This environment may not be appropriately configured to support the Cloud Proxy Server component at this time" 

Cause:
This error can be displayed if System Cryptography: use FIPS compliant algorithm is enabled in Group Policy. The Centrify Cloud Proxy is not currently FIPS compatible 

Solution:
The System Cryptography: use FIPS compliant algorithm option must be disabled in Group Policy to allow Cloud to Proxy server communications. FIPS can be disabled by performing the following: 

1. Open Group Policy Management and edit the Default Domain Policy GPO

2. In the Group Policy Management Editor, navigate to:

  Computer Configuration > Policies > Windows Settings > Security Settings > Local Policies > Security Options > System Cryptography: Use FIPS compliant algorithms for encryption, hashing and signing

3. Disable the policy for FIPS
