A security engineer needs to implement a solution to create and control the keys that a company uses for cryptographic operations. The security engineer must create symmetric keys in which the key material is generated and used within a custom key store that is backed by an AWS CloudHSM cluster.
The security engineer will use symmetric and asymmetric data key pairs for local use within applications. The security engineer also must audit the use of the keys.
How can the security engineer meet these requirements?
A company has two AWS accounts: Account A and Account B Each account has a VPC. An application that runs in the VPC in Account A needs to write to an Amazon S3 bucket in Account B. The application in Account A already has permission to write to the S3 bucket in Account B.
The application and the S3 bucket are in the same AWS Region. The company cannot send network traffic over the public internet.
Which solution will meet these requirements? b
A company’s security team needs to receive a notification whenever an AWS access key has not been rotated in 90 or more days. A security engineer must develop a solution that provides these notifications automatically.
Which solution will meet these requirements with the LEAST amount of effort?
A company has created a set of AWS Lambda functions to automate incident response steps for incidents that occur on Amazon EC2 instances. The Lambda functions need to collect relevant artifacts, such as instance ID and security group configuration. The Lambda functions must then write a summary to an Amazon S3 bucket.
The company runs its workloads in a VPC that uses public subnets and private subnets. The public subnets use an internet gateway to access the internet. The private subnets use a NAT gateway to access the internet.
All network traffic to Amazon S3 that is related to the incident response process must use the AWS network. This traffic must not travel across the internet.
Which solution will meet these requirements?
A development team is using an IAM Key Management Service (IAM KMS) CMK to try to encrypt and decrypt a secure string parameter from IAM Systems Manager Parameter Store. However, the development team receives an error message on each attempt.
Which issues that are related to the CMK could be reasons for the error? (Select TWO.)
An AWS account includes two S3 buckets: bucketl and bucket2. The bucket2 does not have a policy defined, but bucketl has the following bucket policy:
In addition, the same account has an 1AM User named "alice", with the following 1AM policy.
Which buckets can user "alice" access?
A company has recently recovered from a security incident that required the restoration of Amazon EC2 instances from snapshots. The company uses an AWS Key
Management Service (AWS KMS) customer managed key to encrypt all Amazon Elastic Block Store (Amazon EBS) snapshots.
The company performs a gap analysis of its disaster recovery procedures and backup strategies. A security engineer needs to implement a solution so that the company can recover the EC2 instances if the AWS account is compromised and the EBS snapshots are deleted.
Which solution will meet this requirement?
A company is planning to create an organization by using AWS Organizations. The company needs to integrate user management with the company's external identity provider (IdP). The company also needs to centrally manage access to all of its AWS accounts and applications from the organization's management account.
Which solution will meet these requirements?
A Security Engineer is troubleshooting an issue with a company's custom logging application. The application logs are written to an Amazon S3 bucket with event notifications enabled to send events lo an Amazon SNS topic. All logs are encrypted at rest using an IAM KMS CMK. The SNS topic is subscribed to an encrypted Amazon SQS queue. The logging application polls the queue for new messages that contain metadata about the S3 object. The application then reads the content of the object from the S3 bucket for indexing.
The Logging team reported that Amazon CloudWatch metrics for the number of messages sent or received is showing zero. No togs are being received.
What should the Security Engineer do to troubleshoot this issue?
A) Add the following statement to the IAM managed CMKs:
B)
Add the following statement to the CMK key policy:
C)
Add the following statement to the CMK key policy:
D)
Add the following statement to the CMK key policy:
A Security Engineer is working with a Product team building a web application on AWS. The application uses Amazon S3 to host the static content, Amazon API
Gateway to provide RESTful services; and Amazon DynamoDB as the backend data store. The users already exist in a directory that is exposed through a SAML identity provider.
Which combination of the following actions should the Engineer take to enable users to be authenticated into the web application and call APIs? (Choose three.)
