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.)

Question 217

A company is using AWS Organizations to manage multiple AWS accounts for its hu-man resources, finance, software development, and production departments. All the company's developers are part of the software development AWS account.

The company discovers that developers have launched Amazon EC2 instances that were preconfigured with software that the company has not approved for use. The company wants to implement a solution to ensure that developers can launch EC2 instances with only approved software applications and only in the software de-velopment AWS account.

Which solution will meet these requirements?

In the software development account, create AMIS of preconfigured instanc-es that include only approved software. Include the AMI IDs in the condi-tion section of an AWS CloudFormation template to launch the appropriate AMI based on the AWS Region. Provide the developers with the CloudFor-mation template to launch EC2 instances in the software development ac-count.

Create an Amazon EventBridge rule that runs when any EC2 Runlnstances API event occurs in the software development account. Specify AWS Systems Man-ager Run Command as a target of the rule. Configure Run Command to run a script that will install all approved software onto the instances that the developers launch.

Use an AWS Service Catalog portfolio that contains EC2 products with ap-propriate AMIS that include only approved software. Grant the developers permission to portfolio access only the Service Catalog to launch a prod-uct in the software development account.

Question 218

A company hosts a web application on an Apache web server. The application runs on Amazon EC2 instances that are in an Auto Scaling group. The company configured the EC2 instances to send the Apache web server logs to an Amazon CloudWatch Logs group that the company has configured to expire after 1 year.

Recently, the company discovered in the Apache web server logs that a specific IP address is sending suspicious requests to the web application. A security engineer wants to analyze the past week of Apache web server logs to determine how many requests that the IP address sent and the corresponding URLs that the IP address requested.

What should the security engineer do to meet these requirements with the LEAST effort?

Export the CloudWatch Logs group data to Amazon S3. Use Amazon Macie to query the logs for the specific IP address and the requested URLs.

Configure a CloudWatch Logs subscription to stream the log group to an Am-azon OpenSearch Service cluster. Use OpenSearch Service to analyze the logs for the specific IP address and the requested URLs.

Use CloudWatch Logs Insights and a custom query syntax to analyze the CloudWatch logs for the specific IP address and the requested URLs.

Export the CloudWatch Logs group data to Amazon S3. Use AWS Glue to crawl the S3 bucket for only the log entries that contain the specific IP ad-dress. Use AWS Glue to view the results.

Question 219

A company has an organization in AWS Organizations. The company wants to use AWS CloudFormation StackSets in the organization to deploy various AWS design patterns into environments. These patterns consist of Amazon EC2 instances, Elastic Load Balancing (ELB) load balancers, Amazon RDS databases, and Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (Amazon EKS) clusters or Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS) clusters.

Currently, the company's developers can create their own CloudFormation stacks to increase the overall speed of delivery. A centralized CI/CD pipeline in a shared services AWS account deploys each CloudFormation stack.

The company's security team has already provided requirements for each service in accordance with internal standards. If there are any resources that do not comply with the internal standards, the security team must receive notification to take appropriate action. The security team must implement a notification solution that gives developers the ability to maintain the same overall delivery speed that they currently have.

Which solution will meet these requirements in the MOST operationally efficient way?

Create an Amazon Simple Notification Service (Amazon SNS) topic. Subscribe the security team's email addresses to the SNS topic. Create a custom AWS Lambda function that will run the aws cloudformation validate-template AWS CLI command on all CloudFormation templates before the build stage in the CI/CD pipeline. Configure the CI/CD pipeline to publish a notification to the SNS topic if any issues are found.

Create an Amazon Simple Notification Service (Amazon SNS) topic. Subscribe the security team's email addresses to the SNS topic. Create custom rules in CloudFormation Guard for each resource configuration. In the CllCD pipeline, before the build stage, configure a Docker image to run the cfn-guard command on the CloudFormation template. Configure the CI/CD pipeline to publish a notification to the SNS topic if any issues are found.

Create an Amazon Simple Notification Service (Amazon SNS) topic and an Am-azon Simple Queue Service (Amazon SQS) queue. Subscribe the security team's email addresses to the SNS topic. Create an Amazon S3 bucket in the shared services AWS account. Include an event notification to publish to the SQS queue when new objects are added to the S3 bucket. Require the de-velopers to put their CloudFormation templates in the S3 bucket. Launch EC2 instances that automatically scale based on the SQS queue depth. Con-figure the EC2 instances to use CloudFormation Guard to scan the templates and deploy the templates if there are no issues. Configure the CllCD pipe-line to publish a notification to the SNS topic if any issues are found.

Create a centralized CloudFormation stack set that includes a standard set of resources that the developers can deploy in each AWS account. Configure each CloudFormation template to meet the security requirements. For any new resources or configurations, update the CloudFormation template and send the template to the security team for review. When the review is com-pleted, add the new CloudFormation stack to the repository for the devel-opers to use.
