Amazon Web Services SCS-C02 - AWS Certified Security - Specialty
A company has two AWS accounts. One account is for development workloads. The other account is for production workloads. For compliance reasons the production account contains all the AWS Key Management. Service (AWS KMS) keys that the company uses for encryption.
The company applies an IAM role to an AWS Lambda function in the development account to allow secure access to AWS resources. The Lambda function must access a specific KMS customer managed key that exists in the production account to encrypt the Lambda function's data.
Which combination of steps should a security engineer take to meet these requirements? (Select TWO.)
A company wants to store all objects that contain sensitive data in an Amazon S3 bucket. The company will use server-side encryption to encrypt the S3 bucket. The company's operations team manages access to the company's S3 buckets. The company's security team manages access to encryption keys.
The company wants to separate the duties of the two teams to ensure that configuration errors by only one of these teams will not compromise the data by granting unauthorized access to plaintext data.
Which solution will meet this requirement?
A company usesAWS Organizations to run workloads in multiple AWS accounts Currently the individual team members at the company access all Amazon EC2 instances remotely by using SSH or Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) The company does not have any audit trails and security groups are occasionally open The company must secure access management and implement a centralized togging solution
Which solution will meet these requirements MOST securely?
A company receives a notification from the AWS Abuse team about an AWS account The notification indicates that a resource in the account is compromised The company determines that the compromised resource is an Amazon EC2 instance that hosts a web application The compromised EC2 instance is part of an EC2 Auto Scaling group
The EC2 instance accesses Amazon S3 and Amazon DynamoDB resources by using an 1AM access key and secret key The 1AM access key and secret key are stored inside the AMI that is specified in the Auto Scaling group's launch configuration The company is concerned that the credentials that are stored in the AMI might also have been exposed
The company must implement a solution that remediates the security concerns without causing downtime for the application The solution must comply with security best practices
Which solution will meet these requirements'?
A company uses HTTP Live Streaming (HL'S) to stream live video content to paying subscribers by using Amazon CloudFront. HLS splits the video content into chunks sothat the user can request the right chunk based on different conditions. Because the video events last for several hours, the total video is made up of thousands of chunks.
The origin URL is not disclosed, and every user is forced to access the CloudFront URL. The company has a web application that authenticates the paying users against aninternal repository and a CloudFront key pair that is already issued.
What is the simplest and MOST effective way to protect the content?
A company is using IAM Organizations. The company wants to restrict IAM usage to the eu-west-1 Region for all accounts under an OU that is named "development." The solution must persist restrictions to existing and new IAM accounts under the development OU.
An online media company has an application that customers use to watch events around the world. The application is hosted on a fleet of Amazon EC2 instances that run Amazon Linux 2. The company uses AWS Systems Manager to manage the EC2 instances. The company applies patches and application updates by using the AWS-AmazonLinux2DefaultPatchBaseline patching baseline in Systems Manager Patch Manager.
The company is concerned about potential attacks on the application during the week of an upcoming event. The company needs a solution that can immediately deploy patches to all the EC2 instances in response to a security incident or vulnerability. The solution also must provide centralized evidence that the patches were applied successfully.
Which combination of steps will meet these requirements? (Select TWO.)
A company is using AWS Organizations to manage multiple AWS accounts for its human resources, finance, software development, and production departments. All the company's developers are part of the software development AWS account.
The company discovers that developers have launched Amazon EC2 instances that were preconfigured with software that the company has not approved for use. The company wants to implement a solution to ensure that developers can launch EC2 instances with only approved software applications and only in the software development AWS account.
Which solution will meet these requirements?
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 security engineer is creating an AWS Lambda function. The Lambda function needs to use a role that is named LambdaAuditRole to assume a role that is named AcmeAuditFactoryRole in a different AWS account.
When the code is processed, the following error message appears: "An error oc-curred (AccessDenied) when calling the AssumeRole operation."
Which combination of steps should the security engineer take to resolve this er-ror? (Select TWO.)
