+## Introduction
+FIPS compliance requires compiling the project with a Go FIPS-compliant compiler (e.g., golang-fips) and using dynamic linking.
+
+This approach works for most binaries in tektoncd/pipeline, except for the entrypoint, which must be statically compiled to ensure it runs in any environment, regardless of library locations or versions. To mark a statically compiled binary as FIPS compliant, we must eliminate cryptographic symbols (crypto/*, golang.org/x/crypto, etc.).
+
+To achieve this, we need compile-time options to disable TLS, SPIRE, and any network-related functionality.
+
+This document provides instructions on compiling the entrypoint command to ensure FIPS compliance.
+
+## Disable SPIRE during Build
+To disable SPIRE during the build process, use the following command
+
+```shell
+CGO_ENABLED=0 go build -tags disable_spire -o bin/entrypoint ./cmd/entrypoint
+```

@@ -61,6 +61,12 @@ When a TaskRun is created:
 1. The entrypointer receives an x509 SVID, containing the x509 certificate and associated private key. 
 1. The entrypointer signs the results of the TaskRun and emits the signatures and x509 certificate to the TaskRun results for later verification.
 
+## Enable SPIRE during Build
+Users can enable SPIRE support in Tekton Pipelines during the build process by using the following build tag:
+```shell
+CGO_ENABLED=0 go build -tags "!disable_spire" -o bin/entrypoint ./cmd/entrypoint
