Question # 23

A company uses an organization in AWS Organizations to manage its 250 member accounts. The company also uses AWS IAM Identity Center with a SAML external identity provider (IdP). IAM Identity Center has been delegated to a member account. The company ' s security team has access to the delegated account.

C.  

In the external IdP, use Amazon EventBridge to search for events that match the user details for all attempts.

D.  

In the organization ' s management account, use AWS CloudTrail to search for events that match the user details for all successful attempts.

Question # 24

A company uses AWS Config rules to identify Amazon S3 buckets that are not compliant with the company’s data protection policy. The S3 buckets are hosted in several AWS Regions and several AWS accounts. The accounts are in an organization in AWS Organizations.

A.  

Deploy an AWS Config aggregator with organization-wide resource data aggregation. Create an AWS Lambda function that responds to AWS Config findings of noncompliant S3 buckets by deleting or reconfiguring the S3 buckets.

B.  

Deploy an AWS Config aggregator with organization-wide resource data aggregation. Create an SCP that contains a Deny statement that prevents the creation of new noncompliant S3 buckets. Apply the SCP to all OUs in the organization.

C.  

Deploy an AWS Config aggregator that scopes only the accounts and Regions that the company currently uses. Create an AWS Lambda function that responds to AWS Config findings of noncompliant S3 buckets by deleting or reconfiguring the S3 buckets.

Question # 26

A company begins to use AWS WAF after experiencing an increase in traffic to the company ' s public web applications. A security engineer needs to determine if the increase in traffic is because of application-layer attacks. The security engineer needs a solution to analyze AWS WAF traffic.

Which solution will meet this requirement?

Options:

A.  

Configure AWS WAF to send logs to a trail in AWS CloudTrail. Create an Amazon Data Firehose delivery stream to send the logs to Amazon OpenSearch Service. Use OpenSearch Dashboards and an Amazon Athena connector to query the logs.

B.  

Configure AWS WAF to send logs to an Amazon S3 bucket. Configure an OpenSearch table with a partition projection of the S3 bucket. Use OpenSearch to query the data in the S3 bucket.

C.  

Configure AWS WAF to send logs to an Amazon S3 bucket. Configure an Amazon Athena table with a partition projection of the S3 bucket. Use Athena to query the data in the S3 bucket.

D.  

Configure AWS WAF to send logs to a trail in AWS CloudTrail. Create an Amazon Data Firehose delivery stream to send the logs to an Amazon S3 bucket. Use Amazon Athena to query the data in the S3 bucket.

Question # 27

A security engineer uses Amazon Macie to scan a company ' s Amazon S3 buckets for sensitive data. The company has many S3 buckets and many objects stored in the S3 buckets. The security engineer must identify S3 buckets that contain sensitive data and must perform additional scanning on those S3 buckets.

Which solution will meet these requirements with the LEAST administrative overhead?

Options:

A.  

Configure S3 Cross-Region Replication (CRR) on the S3 buckets to replicate the objects to a second AWS Region. Configure Macie in the second Region to scan the replicated objects daily.

B.  

Create an AWS Lambda function as an S3 event destination for the S3 buckets. Configure the Lambda function to start a Macie scan of an object when the object is uploaded to an S3 bucket.

C.  

Configure Macie automated discovery to continuously sample data from the S3 buckets. Perform full scans of the S3 buckets where Macie discovers sensitive data.

D.  

Configure Macie scans to run on the S3 buckets. Aggregate the results of the scans in an Amazon DynamoDB table. Use the DynamoDB table for queries.

Question # 28

A company is planning to migrate its applications to AWS in a single AWS Region. The company’s applications will use a combination of Amazon EC2 instances, Elastic Load Balancing (ELB) load balancers, and Amazon S3 buckets. The company wants to complete the migration as quickly as possible. All the applications must meet the following requirements:

• Data must be encrypted at rest.

• Data must be encrypted in transit.

• Endpoints must be monitored for anomalous network traffic.
