A company has enabled Amazon GuardDuty in all AWS Regions as part of its security monitoring strategy. In one of its VPCs, the company hosts an Amazon EC2 instance that works as an FTP server. A high number of clients from multiple locations contact the FTP server. GuardDuty identifies this activity as a brute force attack because of the high number of connections that happen every hour.

The company has flagged the finding as a false positive, but GuardDuty continues to raise the issue. A security engineer must improve the signal-to-noise ratio without compromising the companys visibility of potential anomalous behavior.

Question 238

Report Export Collapse

A company is expanding its group of stores. On the day that each new store opens, the company wants to launch a customized web application for that store. Each store's application will have a non-production environment and a production environment. Each environment will be deployed in a separate AWS account. The company uses AWS Organizations and has an OU that is used only for these accounts.

The company distributes most of the development work to third-party development teams. A security engineer needs to ensure that each team follows the company's

deployment plan for AWS resources. The security engineer also must limit access to the deployment plan to only the developers who need access. The security engineer already has created an AWS CloudFormation template that implements the deployment plan.

What should the security engineer do next to meet the requirements in the MOST secure way?

A Security Architect has been asked to review an existing security architecture and identify why the application servers cannot successfully initiate a connection to the database servers. The following summary describes the architecture: 1 An Application Load Balancer, an internet gateway, and a NAT gateway are configured in the public subnet 2. Database, application, and web servers are configured on three different private subnets. 3 The VPC has two route tables: one for the public subnet and one for all other subnets The route table for the public subnet has a 0 0 0 0/0 route to the internet gateway The route table for all other subnets has a 0 0.0.0/0 route to the NAT gateway. All private subnets can route to each other 4 Each subnet has a network ACL implemented that limits all inbound and outbound connectivity to only the required ports and protocols 5 There are 3 Security Groups (SGs) database application and web Each group limits all inbound and outbound connectivity to the minimum required Which of the following accurately reflects the access control mechanisms the Architect should verify1?

An IAM user receives an Access Denied message when the user attempts to access objects in an Amazon S3 bucket. The user and the S3 bucket are in the same AWS account. The S3 bucket is configured to use server-side encryption with AWS KMS keys (SSE-KMS) to encrypt all of its objects at rest by using a customer managed key from the same AWS account. The S3 bucket has no bucket policy defined. The IAM user has been granted permissions through an IAM policy that allows the kms:Decrypt permission to the customer managed key. The IAM policy also allows the s3:List* and s3:Get* permissions for the S3 bucket and its objects. Which of the following is a possible reason that the IAM user cannot access the objects in the S3 bucket?
A company is using AWS to run a long-running analysis process on data that is stored in Amazon S3 buckets. The process runs on a fleet of Amazon EC2 instances that are in an Auto Scaling group. The EC2 instances are deployed in a private subnet Of a VPC that does not have internet access. The EC2 instances and the S3 buckets are in the same AWS account The EC2 instances access the S3 buckets through an S3 gateway endpoint that has the default access policy. Each EC2 instance is associated With an instance profile role that has a policy that explicitly allows the s3:GetObject action and the s3:PutObject action for only the required S3 buckets. The company learns that one or more of the EC2 instances are compromised and are exfiltrating data to an S3 bucket that is outside the companys organization in AWS Organizations. A security engtneer must implement a solution to stop this exfiltration of data and to keep the EC2 processing job functional. Which solution will meet these requirements?
