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.

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 is implementing new compliance requirements to meet customer needs.

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

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.

Question 321

A security analyst attempted to troubleshoot the monitoring of suspicious security group changes. The analyst was told that there is an Amazon CloudWatch alarm in place for these AWS CloudTrail log events. The analyst tested the monitoring setup by making a configuration change to the security group but did not receive any alerts.

Which of the following troubleshooting steps should the analyst perform?

Ensure that CloudTrail and S3 bucket access logging is enabled for the analyst's AWS account.

Verify that a metric filter was created and then mapped to an alarm. Check the alarm notification action.

Check the CloudWatch dashboards to ensure that there is a metric configured with an appropriate dimension for security group changes.

Verify that the analyst's account is mapped to an IAM policy that includes permissions for cloudwatch:GetMetricStatistics and cloudwatch:ListMetrics.

Question 322

An Amazon API Gateway API invokes an AWS Lambda function that needs to interact with a software-as-a-service (SaaS) platform. A unique client token is generated in the SaaS platform to grant access to the Lambda function. A security engineer needs to design a solution to encrypt the access token at rest and pass the token to the Lambda function at runtime.

Which solution will meet these requirements MOST cost-effectively?

Store the client token as a secret in AWS Secrets Manager. Use th^AWS SDK to retneve the secret in the Lambda function.

Configure a token-based Lambda authorizer in API Gateway.

Store the client token as a SecureString parameter in AWS Systems Manager Parameter Store. Use the AWS SDK to retrieve the value of the SecureString parameter in the Lambda function.

Use AWS Key Management Service (AWS KMS) to encrypt the client token. Pass the token to the Lambda function at runtime through an environment variable.

Question 325

A company has public certificates that are managed by AWS Certificate Manager (ACM). The certificates are either imported certificates or managed certificates from ACM with mixed validation methods. A security engineer needs to design a monitoring solution to provide alerts by email when a certificate is approaching its expiration date.

What is the MOST operationally efficient way to meet this requirement?

Create an Amazon CloudWatch alarm Add all the certificate ARNs in the AWS/CertificateManager namespace to the DaysToExpiry metnc. Configure the alarm to publish a notification to an Amazon Simple Notification Service (Amazon SNS) topic when the value for the DaysToExpiry metric is less than or equal to 31.

Set up AWS Security Hub. Turn on the AWS Foundational Security Best Practices standard with integrated ACM to send findings.
