A company's web application is hosted on Amazon EC2 instances running behind an Application Load Balancer (ALB) in an Auto Scaling group. An AWS WAF web ACL is associated with the ALB. AWS CloudTrail is enabled, and stores logs in Amazon S3 and Amazon CloudWatch Logs. The operations team has observed some EC2 instances reboot at random. After rebooting, all access logs on the instances have been deleted. During an investigation, the operations team found that each reboot happened just after a PHP error occurred on the new-user-creation.php file. The operations team needs to view log information to determine if the company is being attacked. Which set of actions will identify the suspect attacker's IP address for future occurrences?

Question 41

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

Use AWS Systems Manager to distribute a configuration that performs local backups of all attached disks to Amazon S3.

Create a new AWS account with limited privileges. Allow the new account to access the AWS KMS key used to encrypt the EBS snapshots, and copy the encrypted snapshots to the new account on a recuning basis

Use AWS Backup to copy EBS snapshots to Amazon S3.

Question 44

A Security Engineer has been asked to troubleshoot inbound connectivity to a web server. This single web server is not receiving inbound connections from the internet, whereas all other web servers are functioning properly. The architecture includes network ACLs, security groups, and a virtual security appliance. In addition, the Development team has implemented Application Load Balancers (ALBs) to distribute the load across all web servers. It is a requirement that traffic between the web servers and the internet flow through the virtual security appliance. The Security Engineer has verified the following:

The rule set in the Security Groups is correct

The rule set in the network ACLs is correct

The rule set in the virtual appliance is correctWhich of the following are other valid items to troubleshoot in this scenario? (Choose two.)

Verify that the 0.0.0.0/0 route in the route table for the web server subnet points to a NAT gateway.

Verify which Security Group is applied to the particular web server’s elastic network interface (ENI).

Verify that the 0.0.0.0/0 route in the route table for the web server subnet points to the virtual security appliance.

Verify the registered targets in the ALB.

Verify that the 0.0.0.0/0 route in the public subnet points to a NAT gateway.

Question 45

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''

Launch a NAT instance in the public subnet Update the custom route table with a new route to the NAT instance

Remove the internet gateway, and add AWS PrivateLink to the VPC Then update the custom route table with a new route to AWS PrivateLink

Add a managed NAT gateway to the VPC Update the custom route table with a new route to the gateway

Add an egress-only internet gateway to the VPC. Update the custom route table with a new route to the gateway
