Question 77

A company recently migrated its legacy application from on-premises to AWS. The application is hosted on Amazon EC2 instances behind an Application Load Balancer which is behind Amazon API Gateway. The company wants to ensure users experience minimal disruptions during any deployment of a new version of the application. The company also wants to ensure it can quickly roll back updates if there is an issue.

Which solution will meet these requirements with MINIMAL changes to the application?

Options:

Introduce changes as a separate environment parallel to the existing one Configure API Gateway to use a canary release deployment to send a small subset of user traffic to the new environment.

Introduce changes as a separate environment parallel to the existing one Update the application's DNS alias records to point to the new environment.

Introduce changes as a separate target group behind the existing Application Load Balancer Configure API Gateway to route user traffic to the new target group in steps.

Introduce changes as a separate target group behind the existing Application Load Balancer Configure API Gateway to route all traffic to the Application Load Balancer which then sends the traffic to the new target group.

Question 78

A company runs an application on Amazon EC2 instances. The company uses a series of AWS CloudFormation stacks to define the application resources. A developer performs updates by building and testing the application on a laptop and then uploading the build output and CloudFormation stack templates to Amazon S3. The developer's peers review the changes before the developer performs the CloudFormation stack update and installs a new version of the application onto the EC2 instances.

The deployment process is prone to errors and is time-consuming when the developer updates each EC2 instance with the new application. The company wants to automate as much of the application deployment process as possible while retaining a final manual approval step before the modification of the application or resources.

The company already has moved the source code for the application and the CloudFormation templates to AWS CodeCommit. The company also has created an AWS CodeBuild project to build and test the application.

Which combination of steps will meet the company’s requirements? (Choose two.)

Options:

Create an application group and a deployment group in AWS CodeDeploy. Install the CodeDeploy agent on the EC2 instances.

Create an application revision and a deployment group in AWS CodeDeploy. Create an environment in CodeDeploy. Register the EC2 instances to the CodeDeploy environment.

Use AWS CodePipeline to invoke the CodeBuild job, run the CloudFormation update, and pause for a manual approval step. After approval, start the AWS CodeDeploy deployment.

Use AWS CodePipeline to invoke the CodeBuild job, create CloudFormation change sets for each of the application stacks, and pause for a manual approval step. After approval, run the CloudFormation change sets and start the AWS CodeDeploy deployment.

Question 79

A company detects unusual login attempts in many of its AWS accounts. A DevOps engineer must implement a solution that sends a notification to the company's security team when multiple failed login attempts occur. The DevOps engineer has already created an Amazon Simple Notification Service (Amazon SNS) topic and has subscribed the security team to the SNS topic.

Which solution will provide the notification with the LEAST operational effort?

Options:

Configure AWS CloudTrail to send log management events to an Amazon CloudWatch Logs log group. Create a CloudWatch Logs metric filter to match failed ConsoleLogin events. Create a CloudWatch alarm that is based on the metric filter. Configure an alarm action to send messages to the SNS topic.

Configure AWS CloudTrail to send log management events to an Amazon S3 bucket. Create an Amazon Athena query that returns a failure if the query finds failed logins in the logs in the S3 bucket. Create an Amazon EventBridge rule to periodically run the query. Create a second EventBridge rule to detect when the query fails and to send a message to the SNS topic.

Configure AWS CloudTrail to send log data events to an Amazon CloudWatch Logs log group. Create a CloudWatch logs metric filter to match failed Consolel_ogin events. Create a CloudWatch alarm that is based on the metric filter. Configure an alarm action to send messages to the SNS topic.

Configure AWS CloudTrail to send log data events to an Amazon S3 bucket. Configure an Amazon S3 event notification for the s3:ObjectCreated event type. Filter the event type by ConsoleLogin failed events. Configure the event notification to forward to the SNS topic.

Answer:

Explanation:

The correct answer is C. Configuring AWS CloudTrail to send log data events to an Amazon CloudWatch Logs log group and creating a CloudWatch logs metric filter to match failed ConsoleLogin events is the simplest and most efficient way to monitor and alert on failed login attempts. Creating a CloudWatch alarm that is based on the metric filter and configuring an alarm action to send messages to the SNS topic will ensure that the security team is notified when multiple failed login attempts occur. This solution requires the least operational effort compared to the other options.

Option A is incorrect because it involves configuring AWS CloudTrail to send log management events instead of log data events. Log management events are used to track changes to CloudTrail configuration, such as creating, updating, or deleting a trail. Log data events are used to track API activity in AWS accounts, such as login attempts. Therefore, option A will not capture the failed ConsoleLogin events.

Option B is incorrect because it involves creating an Amazon Athena query and two Amazon EventBridge rules to monitor and alert on failed login attempts. This is a more complex and costly solution than using CloudWatch logs and alarms. Moreover, option B relies on the query returning a failure, which may not happen if the query is executed successfully but does not find any failed logins.

Option D is incorrect because it involves configuring AWS CloudTrail to send log data events to an Amazon S3 bucket and configuring an Amazon S3 event notification for the s3:ObjectCreated event type. This solution will not work because the s3:ObjectCreated event type does not allow filtering by ConsoleLogin failed events. The event notification will be triggered for any object created in the S3 bucket, regardless of the event type. Therefore, option D will generate a lot of false positives and unnecessary notifications.

Question 80

A company manages AWS accounts for application teams in AWS Control Tower. Individual application teams are responsible for securing their respective AWS accounts.

A DevOps engineer needs to enable Amazon GuardDuty for all AWS accounts in which the application teams have not already enabled GuardDuty. The DevOps engineer is using AWS CloudFormation StackSets from the AWS Control Tower management account.

How should the DevOps engineer configure the CloudFormation template to prevent failure during the StackSets deployment?

Options:

Create a CloudFormation custom resource that invokes an AWS Lambda function. Configure the Lambda function to conditionally enable GuardDuty if GuardDuty is not already enabled in the accounts.

Use the Conditions section of the CloudFormation template to enable GuardDuty in accounts where GuardDuty is not already enabled.

Use the CloudFormation Fn. GetAtt intrinsic function to check whether GuardDuty is already enabled If GuardDuty is not already enabled use the Resources section of the CloudFormation template to enable GuardDuty.

Manually discover the list of AWS account IDs where GuardDuty is not enabled Use the CloudFormation Fn: ImportValue intrinsic function to import the list of account IDs into the CloudFormation template to skip deployment for the listed AWS accounts.
