Cevap: Amazon Aurora

Cevap

Amazon Aurora is the correct service because it is a managed relational database that scales storage automatically, provides native multi-AZ high availability, offloads engine patching and hardware management to AWS, and allows the customer to retain responsibility for database-level user permissions.
Amazon Aurora is a fully managed relational database service that supports complex SQL joins, scales storage up to 128 TiB, and provides high availability. Since it is fully managed, AWS handles the undifferentiated heavy lifting of hardware maintenance and database engine patching, while the customer remains responsible for database-level user access controls.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze the database schema and query requirements.
The application requires a relational database that supports complex SQL joins across multiple tables.
This rules out non-relational database services that do not natively support SQL joins.
2
Evaluate the management and patching requirements under the Shared Responsibility Model.
AWS must manage database engine patching and underlying hardware maintenance, while the customer manages database-level user permissions.
This aligns with the Shared Responsibility Model for managed database services, eliminating self-managed EC2 options where the customer is responsible for OS/engine patching.
3
Assess the scalability and high availability requirements.
The database must scale up to 128 TiB and replicate data across multiple Availability Zones automatically.
Amazon Aurora meets these specific scaling limits and replicates data across three Availability Zones by default, making it the correct service.

Cevap: Add a deny rule to the subnet's Network Access Control List (NACL) for the specific IP addresses.; Add an inbound allow rule for port 443 to the Security Group associated with the instances.

Cevap

Add a deny rule to the subnet's Network Access Control List (NACL) for the specific IP addresses, and add an inbound allow rule for port 443 to the Security Group associated with the instances.
The correct actions are to configure a deny rule on the subnet's Network Access Control List (NACL) and an inbound allow rule on the EC2 instances' Security Group. NACLs operate at the subnet boundary and allow explicit deny rules, which meets the requirement of blocking specific malicious IP addresses before they reach the hosts. Security Groups operate at the instance level and are stateful, meaning any permitted inbound connection on port 443 automatically permits the corresponding outbound response traffic without requiring a separate outbound rule.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze the requirement to block traffic from specific external IP addresses at the subnet boundary.
Identify that Network Access Control Lists (NACLs) operate at the subnet level and support explicit deny rules, making them suitable for this requirement.
Security Groups do not support explicit deny rules and operate at the instance level, not the subnet level.
2
Analyze the requirement to allow HTTPS traffic to the instances such that return traffic is allowed automatically.
Identify that Security Groups are stateful and operate at the instance level. An inbound rule allowing port 443 automatically permits the return outbound traffic.
NACLs are stateless and require explicit outbound rules to permit return traffic, which violates the requirement for automatic return traffic.

A startup's systems administrator needs to perform a set of tasks: launching a new Amazon EC2 instance, configuring an IAM group for developers, modifying the contact information of the AWS account, and closing an unused AWS account. According to AWS security principles, which of these tasks must be performed by logging in as the AWS account root user?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: Modifying the primary account contact information and closing the unused AWS account

Cevap

Modifying the primary account contact information and closing the unused AWS account
The correct option correctly identifies that modifying primary account contact information and closing an AWS account are among the few restricted tasks that require logging in as the AWS account root user. AWS recommends protecting the root user credentials and using them only for these specific actions.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze the administrative tasks to determine if they are daily operations or critical account lifecycle actions.
Launching EC2 instances and configuring IAM groups are identified as standard daily administrative tasks, while closing the account and changing primary contact information are account-level operations.
This separation helps identify where the principle of least privilege and root user protection rules apply.
2
Evaluate the permissions and capabilities of IAM identities (users, groups, and roles) versus the root user.
Daily administrative tasks can be fully managed using IAM policies attached to IAM users or groups. Account closure and primary credential/contact modifications are restricted exclusively to the root user.
AWS security best practices dictate that the root user should not be used for daily tasks, but is required for specific, high-risk account management tasks.
3
Verify if the task can be delegated to AWS Support under the Shared Responsibility Model.
AWS is responsible for security of the cloud, while the customer is responsible for security in the cloud, which includes account configurations and management. Thus, AWS Support cannot perform these tasks.
This confirms that the customer must perform these actions themselves using the appropriate account credentials.

A developer is deploying a backend database within an Amazon VPC and needs to restrict access so that only the application tier can communicate with it. The developer wants a security control that operates at the instance level and automatically allows return traffic for any established inbound connection. Which AWS security feature should the developer implement?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: Security groups

Cevap

Security groups
The correct answer is security groups. Security groups act as a virtual firewall for your EC2 instances to control incoming and outgoing traffic. They are stateful, which means that if you send a request from your instance, the response traffic for that request is allowed to flow in regardless of inbound security group rules. Similarly, if inbound traffic is allowed, return outbound traffic is automatically allowed.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the level of security control required by the scenario.
The scenario requires an instance-level firewall rather than a subnet-level control.
This narrows the choice down to security groups, as network ACLs operate at the subnet level.
2
Determine the statefulness behavior of the required control.
The firewall must automatically allow outbound return traffic for any established inbound connection, which is the definition of stateful behavior.
Security groups are stateful and automatically permit return traffic, satisfying both the instance-level and stateful requirements.

Anahtar Kavram

Security groups are stateful, instance-level firewalls in Amazon VPC, whereas Network ACLs are stateless, subnet-level firewalls.

A digital marketing firm is hosting a data analytics application on AWS and has chosen to deploy its relational database using Amazon Relational Database Service (Amazon RDS). According to the AWS Shared Responsibility Model, which operational security task is the sole responsibility of the customer?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: Configuring network access rules using security groups and managing database user permissions.

Cevap

Configuring network access rules using security groups and managing database user permissions.
The option concerning security groups and user permissions is correct. Under the AWS Shared Responsibility Model, Amazon RDS is a managed service. While AWS is responsible for security 'of' the cloud (including database patching, physical infrastructure, and host OS maintenance), the customer remains responsible for security 'in' the cloud, which includes configuring database network access using security groups and managing database-level user accounts and authorization.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the AWS service type being used in the scenario.
Amazon RDS is an AWS managed database service (Platform-as-a-Service/PaaS).
The level of customer responsibility under the Shared Responsibility Model varies depending on whether the service is Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS), Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS), or Software-as-a-Service (SaaS).
2
Determine the boundary of responsibility for Amazon RDS.
AWS manages the operating system, database patching, backups, physical infrastructure, and hardware. The customer manages database access control, network access configurations (security groups), and data encryption.
Since RDS is a managed service, AWS abstracts the underlying OS and hardware, shifting those security responsibilities from the customer to AWS.
3
Evaluate the choices against the customer's responsibilities for Amazon RDS.
Configuring security groups and user access is a customer responsibility. Operating system patching, physical hardware maintenance, and data center security logs are AWS responsibilities.
This isolates the correct task that falls on the customer under security 'in' the cloud.

Cevap: Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS) with AWS Fargate

Cevap

Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS) with AWS Fargate
The correct option is the container service with a serverless launch type. This service allows running containerized applications without provisioning or managing virtual machines, eliminating administrative tasks like OS patching. Since it has no 15-minute runtime limitation, it easily supports the 18-minute workload while billing only for the precise vCPU and memory resources consumed during execution.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze the workload requirements and constraints.
The workload is containerized, requires 2 vCPUs and 4 GB of memory, runs for 18 minutes, is triggered by unpredictable file uploads, and requires minimal operational overhead with no payment for idle resources.
Identifying these parameters helps filter out AWS compute services that do not support containerization, have short execution limits, or require server management.
2
Evaluate serverless options against the execution time limit.
AWS Lambda is ruled out because its maximum execution duration is 15 minutes, whereas this workload takes 18 minutes.
AWS Lambda is serverless but has strict runtime constraints that make it unsuitable for longer-running batch jobs.
3
Evaluate the remaining options based on operational overhead and pricing structure.
Amazon EC2 introduces operational overhead (OS patching and scaling management). Amazon Lightsail charges a flat monthly fee, leading to idle costs. Amazon ECS with AWS Fargate runs containers serverlessly, supports runs longer than 15 minutes, and bills only for active container runtime.
Comparing management responsibilities and cost efficiency identifies the solution that best fits the company's constraints.

Amazon ElastiCache provides an in-memory cache with sub-millisecond latency, which is ideal for caching the highly dynamic stock prices.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze the database requirements for the persistent storage tier.
The transactional history tier requires complex SQL joins, ACID compliance, and automatic read capacity scaling.
This matches the features of Amazon Aurora, a fully managed relational database designed for high-performance transactional workloads.
2
Analyze the database requirements for the caching layer.
The stock price cache requires sub-millisecond response times to handle high read volumes.
This matches Amazon ElastiCache, which is an in-memory data store designed specifically for sub-millisecond caching.
3
Evaluate the remaining options against the architectural and security requirements.
Amazon DynamoDB (NoSQL), Amazon Redshift (analytical data warehouse), and the misconfigured Amazon RDS option (incorrect shared responsibility assignment) do not meet the criteria.
This eliminates the incorrect distractors and confirms Amazon Aurora and Amazon ElastiCache as the correct combination.
