Explanation:

The AWS Documentation mentions the following

To share log files between multiple AWS accounts, you must perform the following general steps.

These steps are explained in detail later in this section.

Create an IAM role for each account that you want to share log files with.

For each of these IAM roles, create an access policy that grants read-only access to the account you want to share the log files with. Have an IAM user in each account programmatically assume the appropriate role and retrieve the log files. Options A and C are invalid because creating an IAM user and then sharing the IAM user credentials with the vendor is a direct 'NO' practise from a security perspective.
