Question 190 - SCS-C02 discussion

Report
Export

A company is using AWS WAF to protect a customized public API service that is based on Amazon EC2 instances. The API uses an Application Load Balancer.

The AWS WAF web ACL is configured with an AWS Managed Rules rule group. After a software upgrade to the API and the client application, some types of requests are no longer working and are causing application stability issues. A security engineer discovers that AWS WAF logging is not turned on for the web ACL.

The security engineer needs to immediately return the application to service, resolve the issue, and ensure that logging is not turned off in the future. The security engineer turns on logging for the web ACL and specifies Amazon Cloud-Watch Logs as the destination.

Which additional set of steps should the security engineer take to meet the re-quirements?

A.
Edit the rules in the web ACL to include rules with Count actions. Review the logs to determine which rule is blocking the request. Modify the IAM policy of all AWS WAF administrators so that they cannot remove the log-ging configuration for any AWS WAF web ACLs.

Suggested answer: A

Explanation:

This answer is correct because it meets the requirements of returning the application to service, resolving the issue, and ensuring that logging is not turned off in the future. By editing the rules in the web ACL to include rules with Count actions, the security engineer can test the effect of each rule without blocking or allowing requests. By reviewing the logs, the security engineer can identify which rule is causing the problem and modify or delete it accordingly. By modifying the IAM policy of all AWS WAF administrators, the security engineer can restrict their permissions to prevent them from removing the logging configuration for any AWS WAF web ACLs.
