A company is implementing new compliance requirements to meet customer needs. According to the new requirements the company must not use any Amazon RDS DB instances or DB clusters that lack encryption of the underlying storage. The company needs a solution that will generate an email alert when an unencrypted DB instance or DB cluster is created. The solution also must terminate the unencrypted DB instance or DB cluster.
Which solution will meet these requirements in the MOST operationally efficient manner?
A company is testing incident response procedures for destination containment. The company needs to contain a critical Amazon EC2 instance as quickly as possible while keeping the EC2 instance running. The EC2 instance is the only resource in a public subnet and has active connections to other resources.
Which solution will contain the EC2 instance IMMEDIATELY?
A company has contracted with a third party to audit several AWS accounts. To enable the audit, cross- account IAM roles have been created in each account targeted for audit. The Auditor is having trouble accessing some of the accounts.
Which of the following may be causing this problem? (Choose three.)
A security engineer received an Amazon GuardDuty alert indicating a finding involving the Amazon EC2 instance that hosts the company's primary website. The GuardDuty finding read:
UnauthorizedAccess: IAMUser/InstanceCredentialExfiltration.
The security engineer confirmed that a malicious actor used API access keys intended for the EC2 instance from a country where the company does not operate. The security engineer needs to deny access to the malicious actor.
What is the first step the security engineer should take?
A Security Engineer creates an Amazon S3 bucket policy that denies access to all users. A few days later, the Security Engineer adds an additional statement to the bucket policy to allow read-only access to one other employee. Even after updating the policy, the employee still receives an access denied message.
What is the likely cause of this access denial?
A company runs an application that sends logs to a log group in Amazon CloudWatch Logs. The email addresses of the application users are in the logs.
The company's developers need to view the logs in CloudWatch Logs. A security engineer must ensure that the developers who access the log group cannot see the user email addresses.
Which solution will meet this requirement?
A company is using AWS Organizations to create OUs for its accounts. The company has more than 20 accounts that are all part of the OUs. A security engineer must implement a solution to ensure that no account can stop to file delivery to AWS CloudTrail.
Which solution will meet this requirement?
A company is undergoing a layer 3 and layer 4 DDoS attack on its web servers running on IAM.
Which combination of IAM services and features will provide protection in this scenario? (Select THREE).
A company uses an Amazon S3 bucket to store reports Management has mandated that all new objects stored in this bucket must be encrypted at rest using server-side encryption witha client-specified IAM Key Management Service (IAM KMS) CMK owned by the same account as the S3 bucket. The IAM account number is 111122223333, and the bucket name Is report bucket. The company's security specialist must write the S3 bucket policy to ensure the mandate can be Implemented
Which statement should the security specialist include in the policy?
A company must create annual snapshots of Amazon Elastic Block Store (Amazon EBS) volumes. The company must retain the snapshots for 10 years. The company will use AWS Key Management Service (AWS KMS) to encrypt the EBS volumes and snapshots.
The encryption keys must be rotated automatically every year. Snapshots that were created in previous years must be readable after rotation of the encryption keys.
Which type of KMS keys should the company use for encryption to meet these requirements?
