Answers
D.

Suggested answer: B

Explanation:

This answer is correct because it meets the requirements of blocking the illegitimate incoming requests in a way that has a minimal impact on legitimate users. AWS WAF is a web application firewall that helps protect your web applications or APIs against common web exploits that may affect availability, compromise security, or consume excessive resources. AWS WAF gives you control over how traffic reaches your applications by enabling you to create security rules that block common attack patterns, such as SQL injection or cross-site scripting, and rules that filter out specific traffic patterns you define. You can associate AWS WAF with an ALB to protect the web application from malicious requests. You can configure a rate-limiting rule in AWS WAF to track the rate of requests for each originating IP address and block requests from an IP address that exceeds a certain limit within a five-minute period. This way, you can mitigate potential DDoS attacks and improve the performance of your website.
