Suggested answer: A

Explanation:

EC2 Account Attributes: Amazon EC2 allows you to set account attributes to automatically encrypt new EBS volumes. This ensures that all new volumes created in your account are encrypted by default.

Configuration Steps:

Go to the EC2 Dashboard.

Select 'Account Attributes' and then 'EBS encryption'.

Enable default EBS encryption and select the default AWS KMS key or a customer-managed key.

Prevention of Unencrypted Volumes: By setting this account attribute, you ensure that it is not possible to create unencrypted EBS volumes, thereby enforcing compliance with security requirements.

Operational Efficiency: This solution requires minimal configuration changes and provides automatic enforcement of encryption policies, reducing operational overhead.
