A company needs to implement data lifecycle management for Amazon RDS snapshots. The company will use AWS Backup to manage the snapshots. The company must retain RDS automated snapshots for 5 years and will use Amazon S3 for long-term archival storage.
Which solution will meet these requirements?
A company’s security engineer receives an alert that indicates that an unexpected principal is accessing a company-owned Amazon Simple Queue Service (Amazon SQS) queue. All the company’s accounts are within an organization in AWS Organizations. The security engineer must implement a mitigation solution that minimizes compliance violations and investment in tools outside of AWS.
What should the security engineer do to meet these requirements?
A company needs to build a code-signing solution using an AWS KMS asymmetric key and must store immutable evidence of key creation and usage for compliance and audit purposes.
Which solution meets these requirements?
An AWS Lambda function was misused to alter data, and a security engineer must identify who invoked the function and what output was produced. The engineer cannot find any logs created by the Lambda function in Amazon CloudWatch Logs.
Which of the following explains why the logs are not available?
A healthcare company stores more than 1 million patient records in an Amazon S3 bucket. The patient records include personally identifiable information (PII). The S3 bucket contains hundreds of terabytes of data.
A security engineer receives an alert that was triggered by an Amazon GuardDuty Exfiltration:S3/AnomalousBehavior finding. The security engineer confirms that an attacker is using temporary credentials that were obtained from a compromised Amazon EC2 instance that has s3:GetObject permissions for the S3 bucket. The attacker has begun downloading the contents of the bucket. The security engineer contacts a development team. The development team will require 4 hours to implement and deploy a fix.
The security engineer must take immediate action to prevent the attacker from downloading more data from the S3 bucket.
Which solution will meet this requirement?
A company has two AWS accounts: Account A and Account
B.
Each account has a VPC.
An application that runs in the VPC in Account A needs to write to an Amazon S3 bucket in AccountB.
The application in Account A already has permission to write to the S3 bucket in AccountB.
The application and the S3 bucket are in the same AWS Region. The company cannot send network traffic over the public internet.Which solution will meet these requirements?
A company must inventory sensitive data across all Amazon S3 buckets in all accounts from a single security account.
A company is using AWS to run a long-running analysis process on data that is stored in Amazon S3 buckets. The process runs on a fleet of Amazon EC2 instances in an Auto Scaling group. The EC2 instances are deployed in a private subnet that does not have internet access.
The EC2 instances access Amazon S3 through an S3 gateway endpoint that has the default access policy. Each EC2 instance uses an instance profile role that allows s3:GetObject and s3:PutObject only for required S3 buckets.
The company learns that one or more EC2 instances are compromised and are exfiltrating data to an S3 bucket that isoutside the company’s AWS Organization. The processing job must continue to function.
Which solution will meet these requirements?
A company is using Amazon EC2 instances to host an application in a private subnet in a VP
C.
The application needs to use AWS KMS.What is the MOST secure way for a security engineer to meet this requirement?
A company has an encrypted Amazon Aurora DB cluster in the us-east-1 Region that uses an AWS KMS customer managed key. The company must copy a DB snapshot to the us-west-1 Region but cannot access the encryption key across Regions.
What should the company do to properly encrypt the snapshot in us-west-1?
