AWS Certified Security - Specialty Questions and Answers

Question 17

Amazon GuardDuty has detected communications to a known command and control endpoint from a company's Amazon EC2 instance. The instance was found to be running a vulnerable version of a common web framework. The company's security operations team wants to quickly identity other compute resources with the specific version of that framework installed.

Which approach should the team take to accomplish this task?

Options:

A.

Scan all the EC2 instances for noncompliance with IAM Config. Use Amazon Athena to queryIAM CloudTrail logs for the framework installation

B.

Scan all the EC2 instances with the Amazon Inspector Network Reachability rules package to identity instances running a web server with RecognizedPortWithListener findings

C.

Scan all the EC2 instances with IAM Systems Manager to identify the vulnerable version of the web framework

D.

Scan an the EC2 instances with IAM Resource Access Manager to identify the vulnerable version of the web framework

Question 18

An Amazon API Gateway API invokes an AWS Lambda function that needs to interact with a software-as-a-service (SaaS) platform. A unique client token is generated in the SaaS platform to grant access to the Lambda function. A security engineer needs to design a solution to encrypt the access token at rest and pass the token to the Lambda function at runtime.

Which solution will meet these requirements MOST cost-effectively?

Options:

A.

Store the client token as a secret in AWS Secrets Manager. Use th^AWS SDK to retneve the secret in the Lambda function.

B.

Configure a token-based Lambda authorizer in API Gateway.

C.

Store the client token as a SecureString parameter in AWS Systems Manager Parameter Store. Use the AWS SDK to retrieve the value of the SecureString parameter in the Lambda function.

D.

Use AWS Key Management Service (AWS KMS) to encrypt the client token. Pass the token to the Lambda function at runtime through an environment variable.

Question 19

A company's security engineer wants to receive an email alert whenever Amazon GuardDuty, AWS Identity and Access Management Access Analyzer, or Amazon Made generate a high-severity security finding. The company uses AWS Control Tower to govern all of its accounts. The company also uses AWS Security Hub with all of the AWS service integrations turned on.

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

Options:

A.

Set up separate AWS Lambda functions for GuardDuty, 1AM Access Analyzer, and Macie to call each service's public API to retrieve high-severity findings. Use Amazon Simple Notification Service (Amazon SNS) to send the email alerts. Create an Amazon EventBridge rule to invoke the functions on a schedule.

B.

Create an Amazon EventBridge rule with a pattern that matches Security Hub findings events with high severity. Configure the rule to send the findings to a target Amazon Simple Notification Service (Amazon SNS) topic. Subscribe the desired email addresses to the SNS topic.

C.

Create an Amazon EventBridge rule with a pattern that matches AWS Control Tower events with high severity. Configure the rule to send the findings to a target Amazon Simple Notification Service (Amazon SNS) topic. Subscribe the desired email addresses to the SNS topic.

D.

Host an application on Amazon EC2 to call the GuardDuty, 1AM Access Analyzer, and Macie APIs. Within the application, use the Amazon Simple Notification Service (Amazon SNS) API to retrieve high-severity findings and to send the findings to an SNS topic. Subscribe the desired email addresses to the SNS topic.

Question 20

A company plans to create individual child accounts within an existing organization in IAM Organizations for each of its DevOps teams. IAM CloudTrail has been enabled and configured on all accounts to write audit logs to an Amazon S3 bucket in a centralized IAM account. A security engineer needs to ensure that DevOps team members are unable to modify or disable this configuration.

How can the security engineer meet these requirements?

Options:

A.

Create an IAM policy that prohibits changes to the specific CloudTrail trail and apply the policy to the IAM account root user.

B.

Create an S3 bucket policy in the specified destination account for the CloudTrail trail that prohibits configuration changes from the IAM account root user in the source account.

C.

Create an SCP that prohibits changes to the specific CloudTrail trail and apply the SCP to theappropriate organizational unit or account in Organizations.

D.

Create an IAM policy that prohibits changes to the specific CloudTrail trail and apply the policy to a new IAM group. Have team members use individual IAM accounts that are members of the new IAM group.
