SCS-C02 Exam
Key domains include:
Incident Response
Logging and Monitoring
Infrastructure Security
Identity and Access Management
Data Protection
Secure Design and Implementation
The SCS-C02 certification is all about protecting AWS environments—think encryption, access control, threat detection, and compliance. On the other hand, the ANS-C01 certification dives deep into network architecture—including hybrid setups, routing protocols, and secure connectivity.
A company runs workloads in the us-east-1 Region. The company has never deployed resources to other AWS Regions and does not have any multi-Region resources.
The company needs to replicate its workloads and infrastructure to the us-west-1 Region.
A security engineer must implement a solution that uses AWS Secrets Manager to store secrets in both Regions. The solution must use AWS Key Management Service(AWS KMS) to encrypt the secrets. The solution must minimize latency and must be able to work if only one Region is available.
The security engineer uses Secrets Manager to create the secrets in us-east-1.
What should the security engineer do next to meet the requirements?
A company is designing a new application stack. The design includes web servers and backend servers that are hosted on Amazon EC2 instances. The design also includes an Amazon Aurora MySQL DB cluster.
The EC2 instances are m an Auto Scaling group that uses launch templates. The EC2 instances for the web layer and the backend layer are backed by Amazon Elastic Block Store (Amazon EBS) volumes. No layers are encrypted at rest. A security engineer needs to implement encryption at rest.
Which combination of steps will meet these requirements? (Select TWO.)
A company wants to know when users make changes to IAM roles in the company's AWS account. The company uses Amazon CloudWatch and AWS CloudTrail in the account. The company has configured a CloudTrail trail to capture read and write API activity for management events. The company has an Amazon Simple Notification Service (Amazon SNS) topic for security notifications.
A security engineer must implement a solution that provides a notification when an IAM role is edited.
