Question 319 - SCS-C02 discussion

Report
Export

A company hosts an application on Amazon EC2 instances. The application also uses Amazon S3 and Amazon Simple Queue Service (Amazon SQS). The application is behind an Application Load Balancer (ALB) and scales with AWS Auto Scaling.

The company's security policy requires the use of least privilege access, which has been applied to all existing AWS resources. A security engineer needs to implement private connectivity to AWS services.

Which combination of steps should the security engineer take to meet this requirement? (Select THREE.)

A.
Use an interface VPC endpoint for Amazon SQS
Answers
A.
Use an interface VPC endpoint for Amazon SQS
B.
Configure a connection to Amazon S3 through AWS Transit Gateway.
Answers
B.
Configure a connection to Amazon S3 through AWS Transit Gateway.
C.
Use a gateway VPC endpoint for Amazon S3.
Answers
C.
Use a gateway VPC endpoint for Amazon S3.
D.
Modify the 1AM role applied to the EC2 instances in the Auto Scaling group to allow outbound traffic to the interface endpoints.
Answers
D.
Modify the 1AM role applied to the EC2 instances in the Auto Scaling group to allow outbound traffic to the interface endpoints.
E.
Modify the endpoint policies on all VPC endpoints. Specify the SQS and S3 resources that the application uses
Answers
E.
Modify the endpoint policies on all VPC endpoints. Specify the SQS and S3 resources that the application uses
F.
Configure a connection to Amazon S3 through AWS Firewall Manager
Answers
F.
Configure a connection to Amazon S3 through AWS Firewall Manager
Suggested answer: A, C, E

Explanation:

The correct answer is A, C, and E because they provide the most secure and efficient way to implement private connectivity to AWS services. Using interface VPC endpoints for Amazon SQS and gateway VPC endpoints for Amazon S3 allows the application to access these services without using public IP addresses or internet gateways. Modifying the endpoint policies on all VPC endpoints enables the security engineer to specify the SQS and S3 resources that the application uses and restrict access to other resources.

The other options are incorrect because they do not provide private connectivity to AWS services or they introduce unnecessary complexity or cost. Option B is incorrect because AWS Transit Gateway is used to connect multiple VPCs and on-premises networks, not to connect to AWS services. Option D is incorrect because modifying the IAM role applied to the EC2 instances is not sufficient to allow outbound traffic to the interface endpoints. The security group and route table associated with the interface endpoints also need to be configured. Option F is incorrect because AWS Firewall Manager is used to centrally manage firewall rules across multiple accounts and resources, not to connect to AWS services.
