A company Is planning to use Amazon Elastic File System (Amazon EFS) with its on-premises servers. The company has an existing IAM Direct Connect connection established between its on-premises data center and an IAM Region Security policy states that the company's on-premises firewall should only have specific IP addresses added to the allow list and not a CIDR range. The company also wants to restrict access so that only certain data center-based servers have access to Amazon EFS How should a security engineer implement this solution''

A company is implementing new compliance requirements to meet customer needs. According to the new requirements the company must not use any Amazon RDS DB instances or DB clusters that lack encryption of the underlying storage. The company needs a solution that will generate an email alert when an unencrypted DB instance or DB cluster is created. The solution also must terminate the unencrypted DB instance or DB cluster.

A developer has created an AWS Lambda function in a company's development account. The Lambda function requires the use of an AWS Key Management Service (AWS KMS) customer managed key that exists in a security account that the company's security team controls. The developer obtains the ARN of the KMS key from a previous Lambda function in the development account. The previous Lambda function had been working properly with the KMS key. When the developer uses the ARN and tests the new Lambda function an error message states that access is denied to the KMS key in the security account. The developer tests the previous Lambda function that uses the same KMS key and discovers that the previous Lambda function still can encrypt data as expected. A security engineer must resolve the problem so that the new Lambda function in the development account can use the KMS key from the security account. Which combination of steps should the security engineer take to meet these requirements? (Select TWO.)

A company has two AWS accounts: Account A and Account B. Account A has an IAM role that IAM users in Account B assume when they need to upload sensitive documents to Amazon S3 buckets in Account A.

A security engineer must recommend a solution that meets this requirement with minimum risk and effort. Which solution should the security engineer recommend?

Question 132

A company has two VPCs in the same AWS Region and in the same AWS account Each VPC uses a CIDR block that does not overlap with the CIDR block of the other VPC One VPC contains AWS Lambda functions that run inside a subnet that accesses the internet through a NAT gateway. The Lambda functions require access to a publicly accessible Amazon Aurora MySQL database that is running in the other VPC

A security engineer determines that the Aurora database uses a security group rule that allows connections from the NAT gateway IP address that the Lambda functions use. The company's security policy states that no database should be publicly accessible.

What is the MOST secure way that the security engineer can provide the Lambda functions with access to the Aurora database?

Move the Aurora database into a private subnet that has no internet access routes in the database's current VPC Configure the Lambda functions to use the Aurora database's new private IP address to access the database Configure the Aurora databases security group to allow access from the private IP addresses of the Lambda functions

Establish a VPC endpoint between the two VPCs in the Aurora database's VPC configure a service VPC endpoint for Amazon RDS In the Lambda functions' VPC. configure an interface VPC endpoint that uses the service endpoint in the Aurora database's VPC Configure the service endpoint to allow connections from the Lambda functions.

Establish an AWS Direct Connect interface between the VPCs Configure the Lambda functions to use a new route table that accesses the Aurora database through the Direct Connect interface Configure the Aurora database's security group to allow access from the Direct Connect interface IP address

Move the Lambda functions into a public subnet in their VPC Move the Aurora database into a private subnet in its VPC Configure the Lambda functions to use the Aurora database's new private IP address to access the database Configure the Aurora database to allow access from the public IP addresses of the Lambda functions

Question 134

A security engineer receives a notice from the AWS Abuse team about suspicious activity from a Linux-based Amazon EC2 instance that uses Amazon Elastic Block Store (Amazon EBS>-based storage The instance is making connections to known malicious addresses

The instance is in a development account within a VPC that is in the us-east-1 Region The VPC contains an internet gateway and has a subnet in us-east-1a and us-easMb Each subnet is associate with a route table that uses the internet gateway as a default route Each subnet also uses the default network ACL The suspicious EC2 instance runs within the us-east-1 b subnet. During an initial investigation a security engineer discovers that the suspicious instance is the only instance that runs in the subnet

Which response will immediately mitigate the attack and help investigate the root cause?

Log in to the suspicious instance and use the netstat command to identify remote connections Use the IP addresses from these remote connections to create deny rules in the security group of the instance Install diagnostic tools on the instance for investigation Update the outbound network ACL for the subnet in us-east- lb to explicitly deny all connections as the first rule during the investigation of the instance

Update the outbound network ACL for the subnet in us-east-1b to explicitly deny all connections as the first rule Replace the security group with a new security group that allows connections only from a diagnostics security group Update the outbound network ACL for the us-east-1b subnet to remove the deny all rule Launch a new EC2 instance that has diagnostic tools Assign the new security group to the new EC2 instance Use the new EC2 instance to investigate the suspicious instance

Ensure that the Amazon Elastic Block Store (Amazon EBS) volumes that are attached to the suspicious EC2 instance will not delete upon termination Terminate the instance Launch a new EC2 instance in us-east-1a that has diagnostic tools Mount the EBS volumes from the terminated instance for investigation

Create an AWS WAF web ACL that denies traffic to and from the suspicious instance Attach the AWS WAF web ACL to the instance to mitigate the attack Log in to the instance and install diagnostic tools to investigate the instance

Question 140

A company's security engineer wants to receive an email alert whenever Amazon GuardDuty, AWS Identity and Access Management Access Analyzer, or Amazon Made generate a high-severity security finding. The company uses AWS Control Tower to govern all of its accounts. The company also uses AWS Security Hub with all of the AWS service integrations turned on.

Which solution will meet these requirements with the LEAST operational overhead?

Set up separate AWS Lambda functions for GuardDuty, 1AM Access Analyzer, and Macie to call each service's public API to retrieve high-severity findings. Use Amazon Simple Notification Service (Amazon SNS) to send the email alerts. Create an Amazon EventBridge rule to invoke the functions on a schedule.

Create an Amazon EventBridge rule with a pattern that matches Security Hub findings events with high severity. Configure the rule to send the findings to a target Amazon Simple Notification Service (Amazon SNS) topic. Subscribe the desired email addresses to the SNS topic.
