A company has an administrative backend service exposed through an Amazon API Gateway REST API. A developer needs to grant access to this API to a serverless processing application running under a specific IAM role in a different AWS account. The connection must be secure and follow the principle of least privilege without requiring the maintenance of user directories or custom code. Which two configuration steps should the developer perform to meet these requirements? (Select TWO.)

Geçerli olan tümünü seçin

Set the authorization type of the API Gateway method to AWS_IAM.

Apply a resource policy to the API Gateway REST API that grants execute-api:Invoke permissions to the consumer IAM role ARN.

Create a custom Lambda authorizer that receives the caller's role ARN and uses the AWS Security Token Service (AWS STS) to validate the signature.

Configure an Amazon Cognito Identity Pool to authenticate the serverless application's IAM role and generate a JSON Web Token (JWT) to pass to a Cognito User Pool authorizer.

Configure Lambda proxy integration for the API method and use a request body mapping template to extract and verify the caller's Signature Version 4 credentials.

Cevap: Set the authorization type of the API Gateway method to AWS_IAM.; Apply a resource policy to the API Gateway REST API that grants execute-api:Invoke permissions to the consumer IAM role ARN.

Cevap

To implement cross-account access securely under least privilege without custom code or user directories, set the API Gateway method authorization to AWS_IAM and apply an API Gateway resource policy that grants the external IAM role ARN access to execute-api:Invoke.

To secure the API for cross-account access without using custom code or user directories, AWS_IAM authorization is the native and most secure solution. By setting the authorization type of the API Gateway method to AWS_IAM, the API will require all requests to be signed using Signature Version 4 (SigV4) with credentials associated with an IAM identity. Then, using an API Gateway resource policy allows cross-account authorization by explicitly permitting the specific external IAM role ARN to execute the API method.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Enable IAM authentication on the API Gateway method.

The API method now requires all requests to be signed using Signature Version 4 (SigV4) with valid AWS IAM credentials.

This ensures that API Gateway natively evaluates the identity of the incoming caller using standard AWS IAM signatures.

Configure the REST API resource policy.

A resource policy is attached to the API Gateway that allows the principal ARN corresponding to the consumer's IAM role to invoke the 'execute-api:Invoke' action.

This permits cross-account API invocation by specifying exactly which external IAM identity is allowed access.

A developer is setting up an AWS CodeBuild project that needs to upload build artifacts to an Amazon S3 bucket named `app-build-artifacts-2026`. The project fails with an authorization error during the build phase. The developer reviews the IAM role created for CodeBuild, which currently has no permissions policies attached, and has the following trust policy:

{
"Version": "2012-10-17",
"Statement": [
{
"Effect": "Allow",
"Principal": {
"Service": "ec2.amazonaws.com"

Cevap: Update the Service principal in the trust policy to codebuild.amazonaws.com.; Attach a permissions policy to the role that allows s3:PutObject on the resource arn:aws:s3:::app-build-artifacts-2026/*.

Cevap

The correct changes are to update the Service principal in the trust policy to codebuild.amazonaws.com, and to attach a permissions policy to the role that allows s3:PutObject on the resource arn:aws:s3:::app-build-artifacts-2026/*.

Updating the Service principal to codebuild.amazonaws.com allows CodeBuild to assume the execution role. Attaching a policy allowing s3:PutObject on arn:aws:s3:::app-build-artifacts-2026/* grants the required write permissions on the bucket's objects.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Inspect and fix the trust relationship of the IAM role.

The Service principal is changed from ec2.amazonaws.com to codebuild.amazonaws.com, allowing CodeBuild to assume the role.

Since CodeBuild is running the build process, it needs permission to assume the IAM role associated with the project.

Create and attach a permissions policy for S3 write access.

A policy containing s3:PutObject for the resource arn:aws:s3:::app-build-artifacts-2026/* is attached to the role.

The role currently has no permissions policies, so it has no rights to perform S3 actions. Adding this policy permits uploading objects to the bucket.

Anahtar Kavram

An IAM role must have a trust policy allowing the executing AWS service principal to assume it, and a permissions policy granting the specific API access needed for resources.

Cevap: In Account A, attach a permission policy to the Lambda execution role that grants the `s3:GetObject` action on `arn:aws:s3:::company-data-shared/*`.; In Account B, update the bucket policy of `company-data-shared` to allow the `s3:GetObject` action on `arn:aws:s3:::company-data-shared/*` for the principal `arn:aws:iam::111111111111:role/LambdaExecutionRole`.

Cevap

In Account A, attach a permission policy to the Lambda execution role that grants the s3:GetObject action on the S3 bucket, and in Account B, update the bucket policy of the S3 bucket to allow s3:GetObject for the Lambda execution role principal.

For cross-account S3 access, permissions must be granted on both sides. The identity-based policy attached to the Lambda execution role in Account A must grant the `s3:GetObject` permission on the specific bucket resource in Account B. Simultaneously, the resource-based bucket policy on the S3 bucket in Account B must grant the same permission to the Lambda execution role's ARN as the principal. Without both configurations, cross-account access will be denied.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Configure the IAM identity-based policy in Account A.

The Lambda execution role in Account A is granted permission to perform `s3:GetObject` on the S3 bucket in Account B.

Even for cross-account resources, the requesting identity must explicitly have the permission granted in its own account's policy.

Configure the S3 bucket policy (resource-based policy) in Account B.

The S3 bucket permits the principal `arn:aws:iam::111111111111:role/LambdaExecutionRole` from Account A to read objects.

For cross-account access, both the identity-based policy in the source account and the resource-based policy in the destination account must explicitly allow the action.

Verify the configuration using the Lambda function's execution context without using hardcoded credentials.

The Lambda function uses its execution role's temporary credentials automatically provided by the AWS SDK, resolving the access issue securely.

Hardcoding credentials violates security best practices and is unnecessary because the SDK automatically uses the IAM role credentials.

Cross-account resource access in AWS requires authorization from both the identity-based policy (source account) and the resource-based policy (destination account).

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: A Cognito User Pool to manage user registration, authentication, and the user directory.; A Cognito Identity Pool to exchange authentication tokens for temporary AWS credentials to access S3.

Cevap

To meet the requirements, the developer must configure a Cognito User Pool to handle user directory management and authentication, and a Cognito Identity Pool to authorize access and provide temporary AWS credentials for the S3 bucket.

The correct solution involves configuring both a Cognito User Pool and a Cognito Identity Pool. The User Pool manages user directory services (registration, login, password recovery), and the Identity Pool handles authorization by exchanging the authenticated user's tokens for temporary AWS IAM credentials so the application can access the S3 bucket directly.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Identify the authentication and directory management requirement.

Amazon Cognito User Pools must be configured because they act as the identity provider, handling registration, sign-in, and tokens.

User Pools are specifically designed to serve as a user directory and manage authentication flow.

Identify the authorization and AWS resource access requirement.

Amazon Cognito Identity Pools must be configured to federate the User Pool tokens.

Identity Pools are designed to exchange authentication tokens (such as OIDC tokens from a User Pool) for temporary AWS credentials via AWS STS.

Configure the client application to obtain S3 access.

The client app authenticates with the User Pool, sends the resulting token to the Identity Pool, receives temporary AWS credentials, and uses them to access the S3 bucket directly.

This flow leverages AWS best practices for secure web client interactions with AWS services.

A developer is building a Python application running on Amazon ECS that must encrypt JSON telemetry reports of approximately $80\text{ KB}$ each before storing them in an Amazon S3 bucket. The application must use AWS Key Management Service (AWS KMS) for encryption. Which approach should the developer implement to meet these requirements?

Configure the ECS task definition with an ECS Task Execution Role that has `kms:GenerateDataKey` permissions, and call the KMS `GenerateDataKey` API operation from the application code to obtain the keys.

Call the KMS `GenerateDataKey` API operation using a customer managed key to obtain a plaintext data key and an encrypted data key. Encrypt the telemetry report locally using the plaintext data key, upload both the encrypted report and the encrypted data key to the S3 bucket, and then delete the plaintext data key from memory.

Call the KMS `Encrypt` API operation directly, passing the

80\text{ KB}

telemetry report as the `Plaintext` parameter, and upload the returned ciphertext to the S3 bucket.

Generate a symmetric key locally within the application code, store that key in AWS Secrets Manager, retrieve it using the Secrets Manager API to encrypt each telemetry report, and upload the encrypted reports to the S3 bucket.

Cevap: Call the KMS `GenerateDataKey` API operation using a customer managed key to obtain a plaintext data key and an encrypted data key. Encrypt the telemetry report locally using the plaintext data key, upload both the encrypted report and the encrypted data key to the S3 bucket, and then delete the plaintext data key from memory.

Cevap

Calling the KMS `GenerateDataKey` API operation to obtain a plaintext and encrypted data key, performing local encryption with the plaintext key, storing the encrypted data and encrypted key, and deleting the plaintext key from memory.

The correct approach uses client-side envelope encryption. Since the JSON payload size is

80\text{ KB}

, direct encryption via the KMS `Encrypt` API is not possible due to its

4\text{ KB}

limit. By calling `GenerateDataKey` with a customer managed key, the application receives a plaintext data key to perform local encryption using a symmetric algorithm (like AES-256) and an encrypted data key. The application uploads the ciphertext data and the encrypted data key to the S3 bucket, then deletes the plaintext key from memory to prevent security leaks. Accessing KMS requires the credentials of the ECS Task Role, which is used by the application code.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Analyze the size of the telemetry report payload.

The telemetry report is

80\text{ KB}

, which is larger than the

4\text{ KB}

direct encryption limit of the KMS `Encrypt` API.

Determines that the application must use envelope encryption rather than sending the raw payload to KMS.

Choose the appropriate KMS API operation for envelope encryption.

The KMS `GenerateDataKey` API operation is selected to generate the plaintext and encrypted versions of the data key.

Allows the application to encrypt the

80\text{ KB}

payload locally using the plaintext key and store the encrypted key with the data.

Verify ECS IAM configuration.

Ensure the KMS permission policy is attached to the ECS Task Role.

The application code running in the container relies on the Task Role for AWS SDK credentials, not the Task Execution Role.

Cevap: Assign an IAM role with Amazon S3 permissions to the Task Role, and assign an IAM role with Amazon ECR permissions to the Task Execution Role.

Cevap

Assign an IAM role with Amazon S3 permissions to the Task Role, and assign an IAM role with Amazon ECR permissions to the Task Execution Role.

The correct configuration requires assigning the application-specific permissions (Amazon S3 access) to the ECS Task Role so the containerized application code can access S3 at runtime. The container agent itself requires permissions to pull images from Amazon ECR, which must be assigned to the ECS Task Execution Role.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Identify the resource-access requirements for the containerized application.

The application code itself needs to access Amazon S3 at runtime.

Application-level permissions must be mapped to the ECS Task Role.

Identify the resource-access requirements for the ECS container agent.

The ECS agent needs to pull the Docker image from Amazon ECR before the container starts.

Agent-level infrastructure permissions must be mapped to the ECS Task Execution Role.

Cevap: Configure a Lambda authorizer on the API Gateway to decode and validate the incoming JWT, and return an IAM policy that grants or denies access to the API methods.

Cevap

Configure a Lambda authorizer on the API Gateway to decode and validate the incoming JWT, and return an IAM policy that grants or denies access to the API methods.

The correct strategy is to use a Lambda authorizer on the API Gateway. This allows the API Gateway to execute a custom Lambda function to validate the incoming proprietary JWT and return a cached IAM policy that controls access to the API methods, securing the API at the perimeter.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Analyze the token source and integration requirements.

The clients use custom JWTs from a proprietary on-premises provider that cannot integrate with Amazon Cognito.

This rules out native Amazon Cognito User Pool authorizers since the tokens are not Cognito-native.

Evaluate where token validation and authorization should occur.

Validation should occur at the API Gateway boundary rather than in the backend proxy integration.

Performing checks at the gateway prevents unauthorized invocations of backend services, optimizing cost and security.

Select the correct API Gateway custom authentication mechanism.

A developer is configuring an Amazon API Gateway REST API to write execution logs to Amazon CloudWatch Logs. The developer creates an IAM role for API Gateway to assume and configures the following trust policy on the role:

{
"Version": "2012-10-17",
"Statement": [
{
"Effect": "Allow",
"Principal": {
"Service": "apigateway.amazonaws.com"

However, when testing the API Gateway REST API, the developer notices that no execution logs are appearing in CloudWatch. How should the developer correct this configuration?

Update the trust policy's Action to "sts:AssumeRole", and attach a separate IAM permissions policy to the role that grants the CloudWatch Logs actions.

Change the Service principal in the trust policy to "logs.amazonaws.com" to permit the CloudWatch Logs service to accept logs from API Gateway.

Add "sts:AssumeRole" to the Action array in the current trust policy to grant both role assumption and logging capabilities in a single statement.

Cevap: Update the trust policy's Action to "sts:AssumeRole", and attach a separate IAM permissions policy to the role that grants the CloudWatch Logs actions.

Cevap

Update the trust policy's Action to "sts:AssumeRole", and attach a separate IAM permissions policy to the role that grants the CloudWatch Logs actions.

The correct option is to update the trust policy's Action to "sts:AssumeRole" and attach a separate permissions policy to the role. In AWS IAM, a role has two types of policies: a trust policy (which defines which principal is trusted to assume the role) and a permissions policy (which defines what the identity assuming the role can do). A trust policy must specify "Action": "sts:AssumeRole". The functional permissions for CloudWatch Logs (such as logs:CreateLogGroup, logs:CreateLogStream, and logs:PutLogEvents) must be attached to the role via an identity-based permissions policy, not specified in the trust policy.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Analyze the IAM role's trust policy.

The current trust policy specifies logging actions directly in the Action block of the trust relationship, which is invalid.

An IAM role's trust policy (trust relationship) is only used to define which principals can assume the role. The only action it should grant is 'sts:AssumeRole'.

Separate trust relationships from permissions policies.

Modify the trust policy's Action to 'sts:AssumeRole' for the service principal 'apigateway.amazonaws.com'. Create a separate IAM permissions policy containing 'logs:CreateLogGroup', 'logs:CreateLogStream', and 'logs:PutLogEvents', and attach it to the role.

This establishes a valid trust relationship allowing API Gateway to assume the role, and grants the assumed role the necessary permissions to write to CloudWatch Logs.

To allow the Lambda function in Account A to write to the DynamoDB table in Account B, the developer must update the trust policy of the target role in Account B to trust the Lambda execution role's ARN, and attach an identity-based policy to the Lambda execution role in Account A that allows the sts:AssumeRole action on the target role's ARN.

For cross-account access using IAM roles, a two-way authorization flow must be established. First, the trust policy of the target role in Account B must be updated to specify the caller's ARN (Account A's Lambda role) as the trusted Principal. Second, the calling identity (Account A's Lambda role) must be granted the sts:AssumeRole permission on the target role's ARN in its identity-based policy. This establishes both the trust from the target and the permission from the source.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Modify the trust policy in the target account (Account B).

The trust policy of CrossAccountAccessRole in Account B is updated to trust the ARN of AccountALambdaRole from Account A.

This establishes trust between Account B's role and the specific IAM principal in Account A, permitting the execution role to assume it.

Modify the permissions policy in the source account (Account A).

An identity-based policy is attached to AccountALambdaRole allowing the sts:AssumeRole action on the target role's ARN in Account B.

This grants the caller in Account A the necessary outbound permission to perform the role assumption operation.

Update the Lambda function code to use temporary credentials.

The AWS SDK calls AssumeRole, retrieves temporary credentials, and instantiates the DynamoDB client using them.

The function must run with the temporary credentials generated by the assumed role to access the DynamoDB table in Account B.

Anahtar Kavram

Cross-account IAM role assumption requires both a trust policy on the target role specifying the calling principal and a permission policy on the calling principal allowing sts:AssumeRole on the target role resource.

Cevap: Create an IAM role with a trust policy that allows the ec2.amazonaws.com service principal to assume the role.; Associate the IAM role with an EC2 instance profile and attach the instance profile to the EC2 instance.

Cevap

To securely grant the EC2 instance permissions, the developer must create an IAM role with a trust policy allowing the EC2 service principal to assume it, and attach this role to the EC2 instance using an EC2 instance profile.

The correct configurations are to create an IAM role with a trust policy that allows the EC2 service principal (ec2.amazonaws.com) to assume the role, and to associate this role with an EC2 instance profile which is then attached to the EC2 instance. This configuration allows the application running on the EC2 instance to securely retrieve temporary security credentials from the instance metadata without hardcoding secrets.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Determine the service principal that needs to assume the role.

Since the application runs on an EC2 instance, the trust policy must specify 'ec2.amazonaws.com' as the principal.

The trust policy controls which AWS service or entity is allowed to assume the IAM role and retrieve temporary credentials.

Determine how the role is associated with the EC2 instance.

The IAM role must be associated with an EC2 instance profile, and that instance profile must be attached to the EC2 instance.

EC2 instances require an instance profile to act as a bridge to attach an IAM role to the instance.

A developer is writing a backend service that needs to encrypt a sensitive JSON configuration payload of $3\text{ KB}$ before writing it to an Amazon DynamoDB table. The encryption must be performed client-side using AWS KMS, minimizing latency and the number of AWS API calls.

Which approach meets these requirements most efficiently?

Call the KMS GenerateDataKey API to retrieve a data key, encrypt the JSON payload locally using the plaintext key, and store the encrypted data key along with the ciphertext in the DynamoDB table.

Call the KMS Encrypt API directly using a customer managed key, and store the resulting ciphertext in the DynamoDB table.

Call the KMS GenerateDataKeyWithoutPlaintext API to obtain an encrypted data key, call the Decrypt API to retrieve the plaintext key, encrypt the JSON payload locally, and store it in the DynamoDB table.

Store the JSON configuration payload in AWS Secrets Manager as a secret, configure automatic rotation, and retrieve the secret using a DynamoDB stream trigger on every write operation.

Cevap: Call the KMS Encrypt API directly using a customer managed key, and store the resulting ciphertext in the DynamoDB table.

Cevap

Call the KMS Encrypt API directly using a customer managed key, and store the resulting ciphertext in the DynamoDB table.

The correct option is to call the KMS Encrypt API directly because the payload size (

3\text{ KB}

) is less than the

4\text{ KB}

limit for direct KMS encryption. This approach minimizes latency by requiring only one API call and removes the complexity of managing envelope encryption keys locally.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Determine the size of the payload to be encrypted.

The JSON payload is

3\text{ KB}

(

3072

bytes).

AWS KMS limits direct encryption via the Encrypt API to a maximum of

4\text{ KB}

(

4096

bytes).

Select the appropriate KMS API strategy.

Since

3\text{ KB} < 4\text{ KB}

, the payload can be encrypted directly using the Encrypt API rather than employing envelope encryption.

Direct encryption requires only a single API call and removes the operational overhead of managing data keys client-side.

Execute the encryption and store the output.

Send the plaintext payload to the KMS Encrypt API, receive the ciphertext, and store it in DynamoDB.

This achieves client-side encryption with minimum latency and complexity.

Cevap: A trust policy that grants the lambda.amazonaws.com service principal permission to perform the sts:AssumeRole action

Cevap

A trust policy that grants the lambda.amazonaws.com service principal permission to perform the sts:AssumeRole action

For an AWS service like AWS Lambda to execute code and access other AWS resources, it must assume an IAM execution role. This requires a trust policy attached to the role that explicitly allows the 'lambda.amazonaws.com' service principal to call 'sts:AssumeRole'.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Identify the AWS service attempting to assume the IAM role.

The service is AWS Lambda.

The execution environment requires the Lambda service principal to acquire temporary credentials.

Verify the correct service principal name for AWS Lambda.

The principal is lambda.amazonaws.com.

Each AWS service has a specific principal identifier used in trust policies.

Determine the API action required for assuming a role.

The action is sts:AssumeRole.

A developer is implementing client-side decryption in an application. The application receives a data package containing a $5\text{ MB}$ ciphertext payload and an encrypted data key that was originally generated using an AWS KMS customer managed key. The application has the necessary IAM permissions to access the customer managed key.

Which sequence of steps must the developer perform in the application code to decrypt the payload?

Call the KMS GenerateDataKey API using the customer managed key to obtain the plaintext data key, decrypt the payload locally using this key, and then discard the new encrypted data key.

Submit the entire ciphertext payload directly to the KMS Decrypt API, allowing AWS KMS to automatically locate the customer managed key, decrypt the payload, and return the plaintext data.

Send the encrypted data key to the KMS Decrypt API to retrieve the plaintext data key, decrypt the ciphertext payload locally using the plaintext data key, and then delete the plaintext data key from memory.

Retrieve the plaintext data key from Systems Manager Parameter Store using the GetParameter API with the customer managed key's ARN, decrypt the payload locally, and store the decrypted data back in Parameter Store as a SecureString.

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: Send the encrypted data key to the KMS Decrypt API to retrieve the plaintext data key, decrypt the ciphertext payload locally using the plaintext data key, and then delete the plaintext data key from memory.

Cevap

The correct sequence is to send the encrypted data key to the KMS Decrypt API to retrieve the plaintext data key, decrypt the ciphertext payload locally using the plaintext data key, and then delete the plaintext data key from memory.

The correct sequence matches the standard client-side envelope decryption workflow. The application sends the encrypted data key (which is small enough to fit within KMS API limits) to the KMS Decrypt API. KMS uses the customer managed key to decrypt it and returns the plaintext data key. The application then performs local decryption on the

5\text{ MB}

payload and safely removes the plaintext key from memory.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Send the encrypted data key to the AWS KMS Decrypt API.

The API returns the plaintext data key.

To perform client-side decryption, the application first needs the raw plaintext data key.

Decrypt the ciphertext payload locally using the retrieved plaintext data key.

The

5\text{ MB}

payload is decrypted into its original plaintext format.

Because KMS has a

4\text{ KB}

API limit, decryption must be handled locally by the application using cryptographic libraries.

Delete the plaintext data key from the application memory.

The plaintext data key is removed from memory.

Leaving the plaintext key in memory exposes it to potential security risks.

A developer has deployed an AWS Lambda function named `DataProcessor` in Account A ( $111111111111$ ) and configured a Function URL with the authorization type set to `AWS_IAM`. An IAM role named `AppRole` in Account B ( $222222222222$ ) needs to invoke this function by sending HTTP requests directly to the Function URL. Which combination of configuration steps will successfully and securely grant `AppRole` the necessary permissions to invoke the Function URL?

Add a resource-based policy to the Lambda function in Account A that grants `lambda:InvokeFunction` permissions to `AppRole`, and attach an identity-based policy to `AppRole` in Account B that allows `lambda:InvokeFunction` on the function ARN in Account A.

Cevap: Add a resource-based policy to the Lambda function in Account A that grants `lambda:InvokeFunctionUrl` permissions to the Principal `arn:aws:iam::222222222222:role/AppRole`, and attach an identity-based policy to `AppRole` in Account B that allows `lambda:InvokeFunctionUrl` on the function ARN in Account A.

Cevap

The correct configuration uses the specific `lambda:InvokeFunctionUrl` action, which is required for Lambda Function URLs. Because the access is cross-account, both the resource-based policy in Account A (which must list the external role ARN as the principal) and the identity-based policy in Account B (which must allow the action on the function ARN) are required.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Identify the correct IAM action required for Function URL invocations.

The action is `lambda:InvokeFunctionUrl` rather than `lambda:InvokeFunction`.

AWS separates standard API-based invocations (`lambda:InvokeFunction`) from HTTP-based Function URL invocations (`lambda:InvokeFunctionUrl`).

Configure permissions for cross-account access.

Permissions must be configured on both the target resource (resource-based policy) and the calling identity (identity-based policy).

For cross-account access, trust must be established bidirectionally: the hosting account must allow the external entity, and the external entity must allow its identity to perform the action on the destination resource.

Verify resource identifier compliance in the policy syntax.

The Resource block must reference the Lambda function ARN, not the HTTP URL endpoint.

IAM Resource elements do not support HTTP URLs; they only accept valid AWS Amazon Resource Names (ARNs).

A developer is building a web application that stores user-specific files in a private Amazon S3 bucket. The application uses an Amazon Cognito User Pool for user authentication. The developer wants to authorize users to access their department's files in S3 using temporary AWS credentials. The user's department is stored in a custom attribute named custom:department in the User Pool. The developer has created a separate IAM role for each department. Which approach should the developer use to assign the correct IAM role to each user with the least operational overhead?

Create an Amazon Cognito Identity Pool and add the User Pool as an identity provider. Configure rules-based role mapping on the identity provider to match the custom:department claim in the ID token to the corresponding IAM role.

Configure the Amazon Cognito User Pool to issue temporary AWS credentials directly by mapping the custom:department attribute to the AWS STS AssumeRole API parameters in the User Pool app client settings.

Create an Amazon Cognito Identity Pool with a single authenticated role. Use the IAM policy variable ${cognito-identity.amazonaws.com:custom:department} in the role's permission policy to dynamically grant access to the department's S3 folder.

Configure an API Gateway REST API with a custom Lambda authorizer that validates the User Pool ID token and calls the AWS STS AssumeRole API to generate and return temporary credentials to the client.

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: Create an Amazon Cognito Identity Pool and add the User Pool as an identity provider. Configure rules-based role mapping on the identity provider to match the custom:department claim in the ID token to the corresponding IAM role.

Cevap

Create an Amazon Cognito Identity Pool, add the User Pool as an identity provider, and configure rules-based role mapping on the identity provider to match the custom:department claim in the ID token to the corresponding IAM role.

The correct solution uses an Amazon Cognito Identity Pool to exchange the ID token from the User Pool for temporary AWS credentials. By configuring rules-based role mapping on the User Pool identity provider within the Identity Pool, the developer can inspect the custom:department claim present in the authenticated user's ID token and dynamically assign the corresponding department-specific IAM role. This requires zero custom code and leverages native AWS features, minimizing operational overhead.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Identify the separation of concerns between Amazon Cognito User Pools and Identity Pools.

Confirm that User Pools handle authentication (user sign-in and profile attributes) while Identity Pools handle authorization (exchanging tokens for temporary AWS credentials).

Since the client needs direct access to S3, temporary AWS credentials must be vended via an Identity Pool.

Determine how to map the custom attribute from the User Pool to the required IAM role.

Leverage the rules-based role mapping feature of Cognito Identity Pools.

Rules-based mapping allows evaluating the custom:department claim from the ID token and dynamically assigning one of the pre-created department-specific IAM roles.

Eliminate options that introduce unnecessary custom code or rely on unsupported policy variables.

Reject solutions involving custom Lambda authorizers on API Gateway or unsupported Cognito Identity Pool policy variables.

These alternatives increase operational complexity and fail to utilize the built-in, native integrations of Amazon Cognito.

Cevap: Call the GenerateDataKey API operation against the customer managed key to retrieve a plaintext data key and an encrypted data key.; Encrypt the PDF document locally using the plaintext data key, and then immediately remove the plaintext data key from memory.

Cevap

To implement client-side envelope encryption for files larger than

4\text{ KB}

, the developer should call GenerateDataKey to obtain a plaintext and encrypted data key, encrypt the file locally using the plaintext key, and then immediately destroy the plaintext key from memory. The encrypted data key is stored alongside the encrypted data.

The correct strategy involves calling the GenerateDataKey API operation to retrieve both a plaintext and an encrypted data key. The plaintext key is used to encrypt the

15\text{ MB}

document locally, and is then immediately deleted from memory to minimize exposure. The encrypted data key is stored with the ciphertext.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Generate the data keys using AWS KMS.

The application calls the GenerateDataKey API operation, specifying the Customer Managed Key (CMK) ID, and receives a plaintext data key and an encrypted version of the data key.

This is required to obtain a unique key for symmetric local encryption while keeping the master CMK secure inside KMS.

Perform local client-side encryption.

The application uses the plaintext data key to encrypt the PDF document locally using a symmetric algorithm such as AES-256.

Because the PDF size (

15\text{ MB}

) exceeds the

4\text{ KB}

limit of direct KMS Encrypt API, the encryption must be performed client-side.

Secure memory and store the ciphertexts.

The plaintext data key is purged from memory, and the encrypted PDF document is stored alongside the encrypted data key.

This prevents memory exposure of the plaintext key and ensures the key can be recovered later by sending the encrypted data key back to KMS Decrypt.

To securely configure cross-account access, the developer must create an IAM role with a trust policy that allows the `sts:AssumeRole` action for the external AWS account principal with a condition checking the External ID, and attach an identity-based permissions policy to the role that allows the necessary CloudWatch actions.

Establishing cross-account access for a third-party application requires creating an IAM role in the trusting account. The trust policy of this role must specify the external account ID as the principal and allow the `sts:AssumeRole` action. To prevent the confused deputy problem, a condition block must enforce the `sts:ExternalId` provided by the third-party. Additionally, the role itself must have an identity-based permissions policy attached to it that defines what AWS APIs the assumed role can call (specifically the CloudWatch metric retrieval APIs).
