Cevap: Implementing client-side encryption for sensitive player data before sending it to the database; Configuring Identity and Access Management (IAM) policies to restrict access to the database tables

Cevap

Implementing client-side encryption for sensitive player data before sending it to the database and configuring Identity and Access Management (IAM) policies to restrict access to the database tables are customer responsibilities.
In the Shared Responsibility Model, the customer is responsible for security 'in' the cloud. For a managed service like Amazon DynamoDB, this includes managing user access via Identity and Access Management (IAM) policies and encrypting sensitive player data on the client side before writing it to the database. AWS maintains the security 'of' the cloud, which includes the physical hardware, operating systems, and database engine software.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze the service type in the scenario.
Amazon DynamoDB is identified as a fully managed database service (NoSQL).
Managed services shift operational tasks (like patching and physical security) to AWS, meaning the customer is responsible primarily for data configuration and access control.
2
Evaluate the customer's responsibilities for a managed database service.
The customer controls identity and access management (IAM) and how they secure the data itself (client-side encryption).
In the Shared Responsibility Model, data security 'in the cloud' (including encryption and access control) remains the customer's responsibility, regardless of the service type.
3
Identify AWS's responsibilities for DynamoDB.
AWS is responsible for managing the physical data centers, host operating systems, and the DynamoDB database engine software.
AWS manages the infrastructure layer, hardware, and system software for managed services, making guest OS patching, database software updates, and physical audits part of the AWS responsibility ('of the cloud').

An organization is securing a proprietary database tier hosted on Amazon EC2 instances within a private subnet of a Virtual Private Cloud (VPC). The database must receive SQL traffic on TCP port 33063306 from the application servers located in a public subnet, while ensuring strict network isolation at both the subnet and instance levels. Which two configuration steps are required to establish this network security architecture? (Select TWO.)

Geçerli olan tümünü seçin

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: Configure the database security group with an inbound rule allowing TCP port 33063306 from the application security group, and rely on its stateful nature to automatically permit outbound response traffic.; Configure the private subnet Network ACL with an inbound rule allowing TCP port 33063306 from the public subnet CIDR, and an outbound rule allowing TCP ports 10241024-6553565535 to the public subnet CIDR.

Cevap

Configuring the database security group with an inbound rule allowing TCP port 33063306 from the application security group (leveraging its stateful tracking), and configuring the private subnet Network ACL with an inbound rule allowing TCP port 33063306 and an outbound rule allowing TCP ephemeral ports 10241024-6553565535.
Security groups operate at the instance level and are stateful. When you add an inbound rule allowing TCP port 33063306 from the application security group, the return traffic is automatically permitted outbound, regardless of outbound rules. Network ACLs operate at the subnet level and are stateless. This means that both inbound traffic (port 33063306) and outbound response traffic (ephemeral ports 10241024-6553565535) must be explicitly allowed.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Determine instance-level security requirements using Security Groups.
A Security Group rule must allow inbound database traffic on port 33063306 from the source application tier. Because Security Groups are stateful, no outbound rule is needed for return traffic.
Security Groups provide stateful firewall protection at the resource/instance level.
2
Determine subnet-level security requirements using Network ACLs.
The Network ACL must allow inbound TCP traffic on port 33063306 from the public subnet. Additionally, an outbound rule must allow TCP traffic to ephemeral ports 10241024-6553565535 back to the public subnet.
Network ACLs are stateless firewalls at the subnet boundary, meaning outbound return path rules are required.

Anahtar Kavram

The key concept is the distinction between stateful Security Groups (operating at the instance level) and stateless Network Access Control Lists (operating at the subnet level) in AWS VPC security.

A security team needs to monitor an AWS environment for active threats and unauthorized behavior. They require a solution that automatically analyzes AWS CloudTrail events, VPC Flow Logs, and DNS logs to identify activities like an Amazon EC2 instance communicating with a known malicious command-and-control server. The solution must be agentless and operate at the account level. Which AWS service should the security team use to meet these requirements?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: Amazon GuardDuty

Cevap

Amazon GuardDuty
Amazon GuardDuty is the correct service because it provides intelligent threat detection. It analyzes data from AWS CloudTrail, VPC Flow Logs, and DNS logs without requiring agents, allowing it to identify suspicious activities like communication with known malicious command-and-control servers.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze the requirements of the scenario.
The scenario requires identifying active threats (like command-and-control traffic), analyzing logs (VPC Flow Logs, CloudTrail, DNS logs), and operating agentlessly at the AWS account level.
Understanding these parameters helps narrow down the correct security service that operates without host-based agents.
2
Differentiate between the candidate services.
Amazon GuardDuty is a threat detection service that matches the log analysis and agentless requirements. Amazon Inspector scans for vulnerabilities rather than active threats. Amazon CloudWatch collects logs and metrics but lacks built-in threat intelligence.
Distinguishing services based on their primary functions (vulnerability scanning vs. threat detection vs. log collection) points to the correct solution.
3
Select the correct service.
Amazon GuardDuty is selected as the correct answer.
It fulfills all criteria, including log source analysis and agentless detection.

A company is hosting a secure web application on Amazon EC2 instances within a VPC. The security team wants to allow incoming traffic on port 443443 (HTTPS) while blocking a specific range of known malicious IP addresses at the boundary before the traffic reaches any EC2 instance. They also need to ensure that the EC2 instances can send outbound response traffic back to clients. Which of the following network security configurations meets these requirements?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: Apply a stateful Security Group to the EC2 instances to allow inbound HTTPS traffic, and configure a stateless Network ACL at the subnet level with a rule that denies the malicious IP range and a rule that allows inbound HTTPS traffic along with outbound ephemeral port traffic.

Cevap

Apply a stateful Security Group to the EC2 instances to allow inbound HTTPS traffic, and configure a stateless Network ACL at the subnet level with a rule that denies the malicious IP range and a rule that allows inbound HTTPS traffic along with outbound ephemeral port traffic.
The correct configuration combines stateful Security Groups at the instance level with stateless Network ACLs at the subnet level. Because Security Groups are stateful, allowing inbound HTTPS traffic on port 443443 automatically permits the return outbound traffic. Because Network ACLs are stateless, they require both inbound and outbound rules to allow the connection to succeed, which includes allowing outbound ephemeral port traffic (1024−655351024-65535). Additionally, Network ACLs support explicit deny rules, which makes them the correct choice for blocking a specific malicious IP range at the subnet boundary.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze the requirement to block a specific malicious IP range at the subnet boundary.
Network Access Control Lists (NACLs) operate at the subnet boundary and support explicit deny rules, whereas Security Groups operate at the instance level and only support allow rules.
This establishes that the IP block must be implemented at the Network ACL level.
2
Evaluate the stateful behavior of Security Groups.
Security Groups are stateful. Allowing inbound traffic on port 443443 automatically allows the outbound response traffic.
This simplifies instance-level configurations since return traffic does not require an explicit outbound rule.
3
Evaluate the stateless behavior of Network ACLs.
Network ACLs are stateless. Inbound traffic allowed on port 443443 requires a corresponding outbound rule to allow ephemeral port traffic (1024−655351024-65535) back to the client.
Stateless firewalls do not track connection states, so both ingress and egress paths must be explicitly configured.
4
Verify shared responsibility boundaries.
Configuring firewalls (Security Groups and Network ACLs) in a customer's VPC is the customer's responsibility under the Shared Responsibility Model.
AWS manages physical and infrastructure security, while the customer secures their resources in the cloud.
