Question 100

A company is running an application in The eu-west-1 Region. The application uses an IAM Key Management Service (IAM KMS) CMK to encrypt sensitive data. The company plans to deploy the application in the eu-north-1 Region.

A security engineer needs to implement a key management solution for the application deployment in the new Region. The security engineer must minimize changes to the application code.

Which change should the security engineer make to the IAM KMS configuration to meet these requirements?

Options:

Update the key policies in eu-west-1. Point the application in eu-north-1 to use the same CMK as the application in eu-west-1.

Allocate a new CMK to eu-north-1 to be used by the application that is deployed in that Region.

Allocate a new CMK to eu-north-1. Create the same alias name for both keys. Configure the application deployment to use the key alias.

Allocate a new CMK to eu-north-1. Create an alias for eu-'-1. Change the application code to point to the alias for eu-'-1.

Question 101

A company has two IAM accounts within IAM Organizations. In Account-1. Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling is launched using a service-linked role. In Account-2. Amazon EBS volumes are encrypted with an IAM KMS key A Security Engineer needs to ensure that the service-linked role can launch instances with these encrypted volumes

Which combination of steps should the Security Engineer take in both accounts? (Select TWO.)

Options:

Allow Account-1 to access the KMS key in Account-2 using a key policy

Attach an IAM policy to the service-linked role in Account-1 that allows these actions CreateGrant. DescnbeKey, Encrypt, GenerateDataKey, Decrypt, and ReEncrypt

Create a KMS grant for the service-linked role with these actions CreateGrant, DescnbeKey Encrypt GenerateDataKey Decrypt, and ReEncrypt

Attach an IAM policy to the role attached to the EC2 instances with KMS actions and then allow Account-1 in the KMS key policy.

Attach an IAM policy to the user who is launching EC2 instances and allow the user to access the KMS key policy of Account-2.

Question 102

A company's application team needs to host a MySQL database on IAM. According to the company's security policy, all data that is stored on IAM must be encrypted at rest. In addition, all cryptographic material must be compliant with FIPS 140-2 Level 3 validation.

The application team needs a solution that satisfies the company's security requirements and minimizes operational overhead.

Which solution will meet these requirements?

Options:

Host the database on Amazon RDS. Use Amazon Elastic Block Store (Amazon EBS) for encryption. Use an IAM Key Management Service (IAM KMS) custom key store that is backed by IAM CloudHSM for key management.

Host the database on Amazon RDS. Use Amazon Elastic Block Store (Amazon EBS) for encryption. Use an IAM managed CMK in IAM Key Management Service (IAM KMS) for key management.

Host the database on an Amazon EC2 instance. Use Amazon Elastic Block Store (Amazon EBS) for encryption. Use a customer managed CMK in IAM Key Management Service (IAM KMS) for key management.

Host the database on an Amazon EC2 instance. Use Transparent Data Encryption (TDE) for encryption and key management.

Question 103

A company uses Amazon API Gateway to present REST APIs to users. An API developer wants to analyze API access patterns without the need to parse the log files.

Which combination of steps will meet these requirements with the LEAST effort? (Select TWO.)
