A company is using Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS) to deploy an application that deals with sensitive data During a recent security audit, the company identified a security issue in which Amazon RDS credentials were stored with the application code In the company's source code repository
A security engineer needs to develop a solution to ensure that database credentials are stored securely and rotated periodically. The credentials should be accessible to the application only The engineer also needs to prevent database administrators from sharing database credentials as plaintext with other teammates. The solution must also minimize administrate overhead
Which solution meets these requirements?
A company has two AWS accounts: Account A and Account B. Account A has an IAM role that IAM users in Account B assume when they need to upload sensitive documents to Amazon S3 buckets in Account A.
A new requirement mandates that users can assume the role only if they are authenticated with multi-factor authentication (MFA). A security engineer must recommend a solution that meets this requirement with minimum risk and effort.
Which solution should the security engineer recommend?
A company needs to retain data that is stored in Amazon CloudWatch Logs log groups The company must retain this data for 90 days. The company must receive notification in AWS Security Hub when log group retention is not compliant with this requirement.
Which solution will provide the appropriate notification?
A company has retail stores The company is designing a solution to store scanned copies of customer receipts on Amazon S3 Files will be between 100 KB and 5 MB in PDF format Each retail store must have a unique encryption key Each object must be encrypted with a unique key
Which solution will meet these requirements?
A company uses AWS Organizations to manage its AWS accounts. The company needs to enforce server-side encryption with AWS KMS keys (SSE-KMS) on its Amazon S3 buckets Which solution will meet this requirement?
A company is using an AWS Key Management Service (AWS KMS) AWS owned key in its application to encrypt files in an AWS account The company's security team wants the ability to change to new key material for new files whenever a potential key breach occurs A security engineer must implement a solution that gives the security team the ability to change the key whenever the team wants to do so
Which solution will meet these requirements?
A company has recently recovered from a security incident that required the restoration of Amazon EC2 instances from snapshots.
After performing a gap analysis of its disaster recovery procedures and backup strategies, the company is concerned that, next time, it will not be able to recover the EC2 instances if the AWS account was compromised and Amazon EBS snapshots were deleted.
All EBS snapshots are encrypted using an AWS KMS CMK.
Which solution would solve this problem?
A company maintains an open-source application that is hosted on a public GitHub repository. While creating a new commit to the repository, an engineer uploaded their IAM access key and secret access key. The engineer reported the mistake to a manager, and the manager immediately disabled the access key.
The company needs to assess the impact of the exposed access key. A security engineer must recommend a solution that requires the least possible managerial overhead.
Which solution meets these requirements?
A company needs to follow security best practices to deploy resources from an AWS CloudFormation template. The CloudFormation template must be able to configure sensitive database credentials.
The company already uses AWS Key Management Service (AWS KMS) and AWS Secrets Manager.
Which solution will meet the requirements?
A company uses AWS Config rules to identify Amazon S3 buckets that are not compliant with the company's data protection policy. The S3 buckets are hosted in several AWS Regions and several AWS accounts. The accounts are in an organization in AWS Organizations.
The company needs a solution to remediate the organization's existing noncompliant S3 buckets and any noncompliant S3 buckets that are created in the future.
