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?

Create a new Amazon S3 bucket Use EBS lifecycle policies to move EBS snapshots to the new S3 bucket. Move snapshots to Amazon S3 Glacier using lifecycle policies, and apply Glacier Vault Lock policies to prevent deletion

Explanation:

https://docs.aws.amazon.com/servicecatalog/latest/adminguide/constraints-launch.htmlLaunch constraints apply to products in the portfolio (product-portfolio association). Launchconstraints do not apply at the portfolio level or to a product across all portfolios. To associate alaunch constraint with all products in a portfolio, you must apply the launch constraint to eachproduct individually.

A company has a VPC with an IPv6 address range and a public subnet with an IPv6 address block. The VPC currently hosts some public Amazon EC2 instances but a Security Engineer needs to migrate a second application into the VPC that also requires IPv6 connectivity.

This new application will occasionally make API requests to an external, internet-accessible endpoint to receive updates However, the Security team does not want the application's EC2 instance exposed directly to the internet The Security Engineer intends to create a private subnet with a custom route table and to associate the route table with the private subnet What else does the Security Engineer need to do to ensure the application will not be exposed directly to the internet, but can still communicate as required''
