Color of Focus Indicator

If the focus indicator is changed to another color, instead of the common dotted outline, does it need to pass the 3:1 color contrast guideline? I tested the Chrome blue on white and it does not pass the 3:1 rule. Does the "color alone" guideline apply to the focus indicator?
