A company's security engineer wants to receive an email alert whenever Amazon GuardDuty, AWS Identity and Access Management Access Analyzer, or Amazon Made generate a high-severity security finding. The company uses AWS Control Tower to govern all of its accounts. The company also uses AWS Security Hub with all of the AWS service integrations turned on. Which solution will meet these requirements with the LEAST operational overhead?

A.

Set up separate AWS Lambda functions for GuardDuty, 1AM Access Analyzer, and Macie to call each service's public API to retrieve high-severity findings. Use Amazon Simple Notification Service (Amazon SNS) to send the email alerts. Create an Amazon EventBridge rule to invoke the functions on a schedule.

B.

Create an Amazon EventBridge rule with a pattern that matches Security Hub findings events with high severity. Configure the rule to send the findings to a target Amazon Simple Notification Service (Amazon SNS) topic. Subscribe the desired email addresses to the SNS topic.

C.

Create an Amazon EventBridge rule with a pattern that matches AWS Control Tower events with high severity. Configure the rule to send the findings to a target Amazon Simple Notification Service (Amazon SNS) topic. Subscribe the desired email addresses to the SNS topic.

D.

Host an application on Amazon EC2 to call the GuardDuty, 1AM Access Analyzer, and Macie APIs. Within the application, use the Amazon Simple Notification Service (Amazon SNS) API to retrieve high-severity findings and to send the findings to an SNS topic. Subscribe the desired email addresses to the SNS topic.

A company deploys a set of standard IAM roles in AWS accounts. The IAM roles are based on job functions within the company. To balance operational efficiency and security, a security engineer implemented AWS Organizations SCPs to restrict access to critical security services in all company accounts. All of the company's accounts and OUs within AWS Organizations have a default FullAWSAccess SCP that is attached. The security engineer needs to ensure that no one can disable Amazon GuardDuty and AWS Security Hub. The security engineer also must not override other permissions that are granted by IAM policies that are defined in the accounts.

Which SCP should the security engineer attach to the root of the organization to meet these requirements?

A.

Option A

B.

Option B

C.

Option C

D.

Option D

A company’s public Application Load Balancer (ALB) recently experienced a DDoS attack. To mitigate this issue. the company deployed Amazon CloudFront in front of the ALB so that users would not directly access the Amazon EC2 instances behind the ALB. The company discovers that some traffic is still coming directly into the ALB and is still being handled by the EC2 instances. Which combination of steps should the company take to ensure that the EC2 instances will receive traffic only from CloudFront? (Choose two.)

A.

Configure CloudFront to add a cache key policy to allow a custom HTTP header that CloudFront sends to the ALB.

B.

Configure CloudFront to add a custom: HTTP header to requests that CloudFront sends to the ALB.

C.

Configure the ALB to forward only requests that contain the custom HTTP header.

D.

Configure the ALB and CloudFront to use the X-Forwarded-For header to check client IP addresses.

E.

Configure the ALB and CloudFront to use the same X.509 certificate that is generated by AWS Certificate Manager (ACM).

A security engineer is designing an IAM policy for a script that will use the AWS CLI. The script currently assumes an IAM role that is attached to three AWS managed IAM policies: AmazonEC2FullAccess, AmazonDynamoDBFullAccess, and Ama-zonVPCFullAccess. The security engineer needs to construct a least privilege IAM policy that will replace the AWS managed IAM policies that are attached to this role. Which solution will meet these requirements in the MOST operationally efficient way?

A.

In AWS CloudTrail, create a trail for management events. Run the script with the existing AWS managed IAM policies. Use IAM Access Analyzer to generate a new IAM policy that is based on access activity in the trail. Replace the existing AWS managed IAM policies with the generated IAM poli-cy for the role.

B.

Remove the existing AWS managed IAM policies from the role. Attach the IAM Access Analyzer Role Policy Generator to the role. Run the script. Return to IAM Access Analyzer and generate a least privilege IAM policy. Attach the new IAM policy to the role.

C.

Create an account analyzer in IAM Access Analyzer. Create an archive rule that has a filter that checks whether the PrincipalArn value matches the ARN of the role. Run the script. Remove the existing AWS managed IAM poli-cies from the role.

D.

In AWS CloudTrail, create a trail for management events. Remove the exist-ing AWS managed IAM policies from the role. Run the script. Find the au-thorization failure in the trail event that is associated with the script. Create a new IAM policy that includes the action and resource that caused the authorization failure. Repeat the process until the script succeeds. Attach the new IAM policy to the role.

A company is using Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS) to run its containerbased application on AWS. The company needs to ensure that the container images contain no severe vulnerabilities. The company also must ensure that only specific IAM roles and specific AWS accounts can access the container images. Which solution will meet these requirements with the LEAST management overhead?

A.

Pull images from the public container registry. Publish the images to Amazon Elastic Container Registry (Amazon ECR) repositories with scan on push configured in a centralized AWS account. Use a CI/CD pipeline to deploy the images to different AWS accounts. Use identity-based policies to restrict access to which IAM principals can access the images.

B.

Pull images from the public container registry. Publish the images to a private container registry that is hosted on Amazon EC2 instances in a centralized AWS account. Deploy host-based container scanning tools to EC2 instances that run Amazon ECS. Restrict access to the container images by using basic authentication over HTTPS.
