AWS Certified Security - Specialty Questions and Answers

Question 49

A company is running an application on Amazon EC2 instances in an Auto Scaling group. The application stores logs locally. A security engineer noticed that logs were lost after a scale-in event. The security engineer needs to recommend a solution to ensure the durability and availability of log data All logs must be kept for a minimum of 1 year for auditing purposes. What should the security engineer recommend?

Options:

A.

Within the Auto Scaling lifecycle, add a hook to create and attach an Amazon Elastic Block Store (Amazon EBS) log volume each time an EC2 instance is created. When the instance is terminated, the EBS volume can be reattached to another instance for log review.

B.

Create an Amazon Elastic File System (Amazon EFS) file system and add a command in the user data section of the Auto Scaling launch template to mount the EFS file system during EC2 instance creation. Configure a process on the instance to copy the logs once a day from an instance Amazon Elastic Block Store (Amazon EBS) volume to a directory in the EFS file system.

C.

Add an Amazon CloudWatch agent into the AMI used in the Auto Scaling group. Configure the CloudWatch agent to send the logs to Amazon CloudWatch Logs for review,

D.

Within the Auto Scaling lifecycle, add a lifecycle hook at the terminating state transition and alert the engineering team by using a lifecycle notification to Amazon Simple Notification Service (Amazon SNS). Configure the hook to remain in the Terminating:Wait state for 1 hour to allow manual review of the security logs prior to instance termination.

Question 50

A security engineer needs to detect malware on Amazon Elastic Block Store (Amazon EBS) volumes that are attached to Amazon EC2 instances.

Which solution will meet this requirement?

Options:

A.

Enable Amazon GuardDuty Configure Matware Protection for EC2 Run an on-demand malware scan of the EC2 instances.

B.

Enable Amazon GuardDuty Configure Runtime Monitoring Enable the automated agent configuration for the EC2 instances.

C.

Enable Amazon Inspector Configure agentless scanning for the EC2 instances.

D.

Enable Amazon Inspector Configure deep inspection of the EC2 instances Run an on-demand scan of the EC2 instances.

Question 51

A company has an application that runs on Amazon EC2 instances behind an Application Load Balancer (ALB). The instances are in an Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling group and are attached to Amazon Elastic Blodfc Store (Amazon EBS) volumes.

A security engineer needs to preserve all forensic evidence from one of the instances.

Which order of steps should the security engineer use to meet this requirement?

Options:

A.

Take an EBS volume snapshot of the instance and store the snapshot in an Amazon S3 bucket. Take a memory snapshot of the instance and store the snapshot in an S3 bucket. Detach the instance from the Auto Scaling group. Deregister the instance from the ALB. Stop the instance.

B.

Take a memory snapshot of the instance and store the snapshot in an Amazon S3 bucket. Stop the instance. Take an EBS volume snapshot of the instanceand store the snapshot in an S3 bucket. Detach the instance from the Auto Scaling group. Deregister the instance from the ALB.

C.

Detach the instance from the Auto Scaling group. Deregister the instance from the ALB. Take an EBS volume snapshot of the instance and store the snapshotin an Amazon S3 bucket. Take a memory snapshot of the instance and store the snapshot in an S3 bucket. Stop the instance

D.

Detach the instance from the Auto Scaling group Deregister the instance from the ALB. Stop the instance. Take a memory snapshot of the instance and store the snapshot in an Amazon S3 bucket. Take an EBS volume snapshot of the instance and store the snapshot in an S3 bucket.

Question 52

A company that uses AWS Organizations is using AWS 1AM Identity Center (AWS Single Sign-On) to administer access to AWS accounts. A security engineer is creating a custom permission set in 1AM Identity Center. The company will use the permission set across multiple accounts. An AWS managed policy and a customer managed policy are attached to the permission set. The security engineer has full administrative permissions and is operating in the management account.

When the security engineer attempts to assign the permission set to an 1AM Identity Center user who has access to multiple accounts, the assignment fails.

What should the security engineer do to resolve this failure?

Options:

A.

Create the customer managed policy in every account where the permission set is assigned. Give the customer managed policy the same name and same permissions in each account.

B.

Remove either the AWS managed policy or the customer managed policy from the permission set. Create a second permission set that includes the removed policy. Apply the permission sets separately to the user.

C.

Evaluate the logic of the AWS managed policy and the customer managed policy. Resolve any policy conflicts in the permission set before deployment.

D.

Do not add the new permission set to the user. Instead, edit the user's existing permission set to include the AWS managed policy and the customer managed policy.
