Amazon Web Services DOP-C02 Exam With Confidence Using Practice Dumps

Comprehensive & Detailed Explanation (150–250 words):

Amazon GuardDuty provides built-in, fully managed threat detection for AWS accounts and workloads, including automatic detection of cryptocurrency mining activity, compromised EC2 instances, command-and-control traffic patterns, and anomalous behaviors. GuardDuty includes multiple threat identifiers such as EC2:CryptoCurrencyActivity.BitcoinToolDetected and EC2:UnauthorizedAccess.CryptoMining. Because this capability is native and requires no custom detection logic, it provides the lowest development and operational overhead compared to alternatives.

When GuardDuty generates a finding, it publishes the event automatically to Amazon EventBridge. The DevOps engineer can create an EventBridge rule that matches the specific mining-related finding types. The target of the rule is an AWS Lambda function that parses instance details from the finding and calls TerminateInstances on the affected EC2 instance.

This enables real-time automated remediation without needing recurring scans, log parsing, or complex data queries.

Options A and B require building custom detection pipelines and maintaining periodic Lambda polling, increasing long-term complexity. Option D (Security Hub) aggregates findings but still relies on GuardDuty for detection, adding unnecessary overhead.

Therefore, GuardDuty + EventBridge + Lambda termination is the easiest, quickest, and most AWS-recommended solution following incident-response best practices.

You need to understand how SCP inheritance works in AWS. The way it works for Deny policies is different that allow policies.

Allow polices are passing down to children ONLY if they don't have an allow policy.

Deny policies always pass down to children.

That's why there is always an SCP set to the Root to allow everything by default. If you limit this policy, the whole organization will be limited, not matter what other policies are saying for the other OUs. So it's not A. It's not D because it restricts the wrong OU.

Step 1: Storing Docker Images in Amazon ECRDocker images can be large, and storing them in a centralized, scalable location can greatly reduce build times. Amazon Elastic Container Registry (ECR) is a fully managed container registry that stores, manages, and deploys Docker container images.

Action: Store the Docker images in an ECR repository.

Why: Storing Docker images in ECR ensures that Docker images can be reused across multiple builds, improving build performance by avoiding the need to rebuild the images from scratch.
