Question 125

A research company conducts mathematical simulations in the AWS Cloud. The simulations run on several hundred Amazon EC2 Linux instances. If a simulation encounters an issue, an engineer establishes an SSH connection to the affected EC2 instance.

Company policy requires that each EC2 instance session is established with a unique SSH key and that all SSH connections are logged in AWS CloudTrail. CloudTrail is enabled for the company’s account and the AWS Regions that the company uses.

Which solution will meet these requirements?

Options:

Answer:

Launch new EC2 instances. Generate an individual SSH key for each new EC2 instance. Store the SSH key in AWS Secrets Manager. Create a new IAM policy. Attach the IAM policy to the engineers ' IAM role with an Allow statement for the GetSecretValue action. Instruct the engineers to retrieve the SSH key from Secrets Manager when the engineers connect through any SSH client.

Answer:

Create an AWS Systems Manager document to run commands on EC2 instances to set a new unique SSH key. Create a new IAM policy. Attach the IAM policy to the engineers ' IAM role with an Allow statement to run Systems Manager documents. Instruct the engineers to run the document to set an SSH key and to connect through any SSH client.

Answer:

Launch new EC2 instances without setting up any SSH key for the new EC2 instances. Set up EC2 Instance Connect on each new EC2 instance. Create a new IAM policy. Attach the IAM policy to the engineers ' IAM role with an Allow statement for the SendSSHPublicKey action. Instruct the engineers to connect to the EC2 instances by using Instance Connect from the AWS CLI.

Answer:

Set up AWS Secrets Manager to store the EC2 SSH key. Create an AWS Lambda function to create a new SSH key and to call AWS Systems Manager Session Manager to set the SSH key on the EC2 instance. Configure Secrets Manager to use the Lambda function to automatically rotate the SSH key once daily. Instruct the engineers to retrieve the SSH key from Secrets Manager when the engineers connect through any SSH client.

Answer:

C is correct because EC2 Instance Connect pushes a temporary SSH public key to the instance for a short connection window instead of relying on long-lived shared key pairs. This satisfies the requirement that each SSH session use a unique key. AWS documentation states that the SendSSHPublicKey API pushes an SSH public key to the specified instance and that the key remains for 60 seconds. EC2 API calls, including SendSSHPublicKey, are recorded in CloudTrail, which gives the company auditable connection records. Secrets Manager key storage does not inherently log actual SSH connection attempts and still leaves operational complexity around key retrieval and rotation. Systems Manager documents also do not provide the clean session-specific SSH key behavior that EC2 Instance Connect provides.

Question 126

A company runs an application on Amazon EC2 and AWS Lambda. The application stores temporary data in Amazon 53. The 53 objects are deleted after 24 hours.

The company deploys new versions of the application by launching AWS CloudFormation stacks. The stacks create the required resources. After validating a new version, the company deletes the old stack. The deletion of an old development stack recently failed. A solutions architect needs to resolve this Issue without major architecture changes.

Which solution will meet these requirements?

Options:

Create a Lambda function to delete objects from an 53 bucket. Add the Lambda function as acustom resource in the CloudFormation stack with a DependsOn attribute that points to the S3 bucket resource.

Modify the CkxidFormatton stack to attach a DeletionPolicy attribute with a value of Delete to the S3 bucket.

Update the CloudFormation stack to add a DeletionPolicy attribute with a value of Snapshot for the S3 bucket resource.

Update the CloudFormation template to create an Amazon EFS file system to store temporary files Instead of Amazon S3. Configure the Lambda functions to run in the same VPC as the EFS file system.

Question 127

A travel company built a web application that uses Amazon SES to send email notifications to users. The company needs to enable logging to help troubleshoot email delivery issues. The company also needs the ability to do searches that are based on recipient, subject, and time sent.

Which combination of steps should a solutions architect take to meet these requirements? (Select TWO.)

Options:

Create an Amazon SES configuration set with Amazon Data Firehose as the destination. Choose to send logs to an Amazon S3 bucket.

Enable AWS CloudTrail logging. Specify an Amazon S3 bucket as the destination for the logs.

Use Amazon Athena to query the logs in the Amazon S3 bucket for recipient, subject, and time sent.

Create an Amazon CloudWatch log group. Configure Amazon SES to send logs to the log group.

Use Amazon Athena to query the logs in Amazon CloudWatch for recipient, subject, and time sent.

Answer:

A, C

Explanation:

The company wants logging that helps troubleshoot email delivery issues and also wants to search by recipient, subject, and time sent. Amazon SES provides event publishing for email sending and delivery events through configuration sets. With a configuration set, SES can publish sending events such as send, delivery, bounce, complaint, reject, and rendering failure to destinations such as Amazon CloudWatch, Amazon SNS, or Amazon Kinesis Data Firehose. For building a searchable log store, delivering these events into Amazon S3 through Kinesis Data Firehose is an effective approach because S3 provides durable storage and integrates well with query services.

Option A creates an SES configuration set with a Kinesis Data Firehose destination that delivers logs to an S3 bucket. This captures detailed SES event data that is directly useful for troubleshooting delivery issues and retaining historical records for analysis.

Once logs are stored in Amazon S3, Amazon Athena can query the data using SQL. Athena is designed to query data in S3 and is well suited for ad hoc searches. This meets the requirement to search based on recipient, subject, and time sent, assuming the event schema includes these fields (or they are included in the published event payload). Therefore, option C completes the solution by enabling searches over the stored log dataset.

Option B (CloudTrail) records API activity, such as calls made to SES APIs, but it is not designed to capture per-message delivery outcomes (deliveries, bounces, complaints) in a way that supports troubleshooting delivery behavior and detailed email event searching. CloudTrail is useful for auditing who called SES APIs, not for tracking message-level delivery events and outcomes.

Option D (CloudWatch log group) is another valid SES event publishing destination, but if the requirement is to perform flexible searches by multiple dimensions over a potentially large historical dataset, storing the logs in S3 and querying with Athena is a more direct and scalable pattern. Also, the provided option E is incorrect because Athena queries data in S3, not in CloudWatch Logs. CloudWatch Logs has its own query mechanism, but Athena is not used to query CloudWatch Logs directly in the way described.

Option E is incorrect because Amazon Athena does not query CloudWatch Logs as a log store. The typical searchable pattern for Athena is S3-backed datasets.

Therefore, the best combination to satisfy logging and searchable analysis requirements is to publish SES events to S3 via Kinesis Data Firehose (option A) and query those logs with Athena (option C).

Question 128

A company is deploying a third-party web application on AWS. The application is packaged as a Docker image. The company has deployed the Docker image as an AWS

Fargate service in Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS). An Application Load Balancer (ALB) directs traffic to the application.

The company needs to give only a specific list of users the ability to access the application from the internet. The company cannot change the application and cannot integrate the application with an identity provider. All users must be authenticated through multi-factor authentication (MFA).

Which solution will meet these requirements?

Options:

Create a user pool in Amazon Cognito. Configure the pool for the application. Populate the pool with the required users. Configure the pool to require MFA.Configure a listener rule on the ALB to require authentication through the Amazon Cognito hosted UI.

Configure the users in AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM). Attach a resource policy to the Fargate service to require users to use MFA. Configure alistener rule on the ALB to require authentication through IAM.

Configure the users in AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM). Enable AWS IAM Identity Center (AWS Single Sign-On). Configure resource protection forthe ALB. Create a resource protection rule to require users to use MFA.

Create a user pool in AWS Amplify. Configure the pool for the application. Populate the pool with the required users. Configure the pool to require MFA.Configure a listener rule on the ALB to require authentication through the Amplify hosted UI.
