  4. D
    Submitting a request to AWS Support to conduct a physical security audit of the data centers housing the EC2 instances.

Cevap

Configuring the security group rules to restrict inbound network traffic to the EC2 instances.
Under the AWS Shared Responsibility Model, the customer is responsible for configuring security groups (which operate as a firewall at the instance level) to control inbound and outbound traffic to their resources. This is classified as security 'in' the cloud.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze the customer's requirements in the scenario.
The customer needs to restrict network access to EC2 instances and obtain compliance reports for the physical infrastructure.
Understanding the required tasks is necessary to map them to the correct side of the Shared Responsibility Model.
2
Determine the boundary of responsibility for each task.
Configuring security groups is a customer responsibility (security in the cloud), while physical data center security and hypervisor maintenance are AWS responsibilities (security of the cloud). Compliance reports for the physical infrastructure are retrieved by the customer using AWS Artifact.
This identifies the specific action that falls under the customer's operational duties.
