A developer is implementing a secure report retrieval feature for a corporate intranet portal. The portal's users authenticate using an Amazon Cognito User Pool. Once authenticated, the portal's client-side application needs to download private reports directly from an Amazon S3 bucket. To optimize performance and cost, the architecture must not route the file downloads through an intermediate API Gateway or Lambda function. The solution must grant users direct, short-lived access to the reports using the least privilege principle.

Which TWO configuration steps should the developer perform to meet these requirements?

Cevap: Configure an Amazon Cognito Identity Pool and add the Cognito User Pool as an identity provider.; Attach an IAM policy granting s3:GetObject permissions to the IAM role associated with authenticated users in the Identity Pool.

Cevap

Configure an Amazon Cognito Identity Pool and add the Cognito User Pool as an identity provider, and attach an IAM policy granting s3:GetObject permissions to the IAM role associated with authenticated users in the Identity Pool.

To authorize authenticated Cognito User Pool users to directly access private S3 resources, the developer must configure an Amazon Cognito Identity Pool that lists the User Pool as its identity provider. The developer must then attach an IAM policy granting s3:GetObject permissions to the authenticated IAM role of the Identity Pool. This allows the client-side application to obtain short-lived AWS credentials containing the necessary permissions to retrieve files directly from S3 without passing through intermediate compute layers.

Cevap: Store the API key in AWS Secrets Manager. Configure automated rotation in AWS Secrets Manager by writing a custom AWS Lambda rotation function, and retrieve the key in the backend Lambda function using the AWS SDK with local caching.

Cevap

Store the API key in AWS Secrets Manager, configure automated rotation using a custom Lambda function, and retrieve the key in the backend Lambda function using the AWS SDK with local caching.

Storing the API key in AWS Secrets Manager and configuring a custom Lambda rotation function allows AWS to natively manage the rotation schedule and execution. The application Lambda function retrieves the key at runtime using the AWS SDK, and caching it locally ensures subsequent invocations do not call Secrets Manager unnecessarily, minimizing latency and API costs.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Create a secret in AWS Secrets Manager to store the third-party payment gateway API key.

The API key is securely encrypted and stored.

AWS Secrets Manager is optimized for securing credentials and sensitive values.

Configure AWS Secrets Manager rotation settings by linking a custom AWS Lambda rotation function and setting the schedule to 30 days.

Secrets Manager automatically invokes the Lambda function on schedule to update the secret value.

This automates the rotation lifecycle with native orchestrations instead of custom cron schedulers.

Update the application Lambda function to retrieve the API key using the AWS SDK and cache the value in memory.

The key is fetched at startup or initialization and reused across invocations, lowering latency and reducing cost.

Local caching minimizes the number of API calls to AWS Secrets Manager.

A developer is designing a web application that uses Amazon Cognito User Pools for user authentication and Amazon API Gateway REST APIs for the backend. The API endpoints must be secured so that only users with an 'Active' subscription can access them. The subscription status is stored in an external Amazon DynamoDB table and updated in real-time, which prevents it from being stored as a static attribute in the Cognito ID or access tokens. Which solution should the developer implement to secure the API Gateway endpoints?

Implement a Cognito User Pool Authorizer on API Gateway, and configure a Cognito Post-Authentication Lambda trigger to query the DynamoDB table and dynamically inject the subscription status into the API Gateway authorizer context.

Implement a Cognito Identity Pool to exchange the User Pool token for temporary AWS credentials, and attach an IAM policy to the authenticated role that uses policy conditions to query the DynamoDB table in real-time.

Implement an API Gateway Lambda Authorizer that validates the incoming Cognito token, queries the DynamoDB table to verify the user's subscription status, and returns an IAM policy to allow or deny the request.

Implement a Cognito User Pool Authorizer on API Gateway, and configure API Gateway integration request mapping templates to query the DynamoDB table and reject unauthorized requests before they reach the backend.

Cevap: Implement an API Gateway Lambda Authorizer that validates the incoming Cognito token, queries the DynamoDB table to verify the user's subscription status, and returns an IAM policy to allow or deny the request.

Cevap

An API Gateway Lambda Authorizer allows custom authorization logic. In this scenario, it can parse and validate the Cognito token to authenticate the user, query DynamoDB to check the real-time subscription status, and dynamically generate an IAM policy that allows or denies access to the API resources.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Analyze the authentication and authorization requirements.

Authentication is handled by Cognito User Pools (JWT tokens are provided to the client). Authorization requires a real-time check against an external DynamoDB table.

Determines whether the built-in Cognito Authorizer is sufficient or if a custom authorization mechanism is required.

Evaluate the capabilities of the native Cognito User Pool Authorizer.

The native authorizer can only validate token signatures, expiration, and audience. It cannot perform external lookups or query DynamoDB.

Eliminates solutions relying solely on the built-in Cognito User Pool Authorizer for dynamic database checks.

Select and configure an API Gateway Lambda Authorizer.

The Lambda Authorizer receives the token, decodes and validates it, queries DynamoDB for the real-time subscription status, and returns an IAM policy.

Provides the custom validation logic needed to satisfy the real-time subscription requirement before the request reaches the backend.

Cevap: Create a secret in AWS Secrets Manager within the security account, and apply a resource-based policy to allow retrieval from the application account's Fargate task roles.; Configure an AWS Lambda function in the security account to handle the API key rotation, and associate it with the Secrets Manager secret on a 90-day schedule.

Cevap

To securely share and rotate the key across accounts, the developer must use AWS Secrets Manager in the security account with a resource-based policy permitting access to the application's Fargate task roles, and configure a custom AWS Lambda function to perform the 90-day rotation.

To support both cross-account access and automated rotation, AWS Secrets Manager is the correct service choice. A resource-based policy attached directly to the secret allows the application's Fargate task roles in a separate account to read the secret directly. Additionally, Secrets Manager integrates with AWS Lambda to orchestrate the rotation logic on a schedule.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Select the proper service for cross-account access and rotation.

AWS Secrets Manager is chosen instead of Systems Manager Parameter Store.

Secrets Manager natively supports resource-based policies for cross-account access and has built-in rotation functionality, whereas Parameter Store parameters do not support resource-based policies.

Configure permissions for the Fargate tasks.

Attach a resource-based policy to the Secrets Manager secret allowing the Fargate task roles to retrieve it.

Dynamic runtime API calls by application code require permissions attached to the task role itself, not the task execution role.

Implement the automatic rotation.

Create a Lambda function to perform rotation and set the rotation schedule on the secret to 90 days.

AWS Secrets Manager uses a Lambda function to execute rotation workflows automatically.

Cevap: Configure an Amazon Cognito User Pool federated with Google and Apple, and set up an Amazon API Gateway JWT authorizer that validates the identity tokens issued by the User Pool.; Configure an Amazon Cognito Identity Pool that integrates with the User Pool as an identity provider, and associate an IAM role with the authenticated identities that grants kinesis:PutRecord permissions.

Cevap

To secure the HTTP API, configure a User Pool federated with Google and Apple and use an API Gateway JWT authorizer. To authorize direct Kinesis writes, configure an Identity Pool that exchanges User Pool tokens for temporary AWS credentials with the required IAM policy.

Setting up a Cognito User Pool with Google and Apple federation allows the application to authenticate users and receive JSON Web Tokens (JWTs). These JWTs can be natively validated by an API Gateway HTTP API JWT authorizer. An Identity Pool takes the token from the authenticated User Pool session and exchanges it for temporary AWS credentials via an IAM role, which allows the application to directly call the Kinesis API.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Determine how to authenticate users via Google and Apple and secure API Gateway HTTP API routes.

Identify that an Amazon Cognito User Pool acts as the user directory and identity provider (IdP), and that API Gateway HTTP APIs can use a native JWT authorizer to validate the issued token.

User Pools handle authentication and federation with social providers, while API Gateway JWT authorizers offer low-latency, built-in validation of these user pool tokens.

Determine how the client application can write to the Amazon Kinesis Data Stream directly.

Identify that the client needs temporary AWS credentials authorized via an IAM role to call the Kinesis API.

Cognito Identity Pools exchange Cognito User Pool tokens for temporary AWS security credentials, enabling direct, secure client access to AWS resources like Kinesis.

Associate the IAM role with the correct Cognito construct.

Configure the Cognito Identity Pool with the authenticated IAM role containing the kinesis:PutRecord policy.

This maps authenticated users to the specific AWS IAM policy required to publish telemetry data to Kinesis.

A developer is building a corporate portal where employees must sign in using their existing SAML 2.0 Identity Provider (IdP) credentials. The portal's backend API, hosted on Amazon API Gateway, requires custom user claims such as department and employee ID to perform fine-grained authorization. Which configuration will meet these requirements with the least development effort?

Configure the SAML 2.0 IdP as a federated identity provider in a Cognito User Pool, map the SAML assertions to the corresponding user pool attributes, and configure API Gateway to use a Cognito User Pool authorizer.

Configure the SAML 2.0 IdP in a Cognito Identity Pool, map the SAML assertions to IAM principal tags, and configure API Gateway to use IAM authorization for the backend API.

Configure the SAML 2.0 IdP in a Cognito Identity Pool, map the SAML assertions to Cognito User Pool attributes using a Custom Message Lambda trigger, and configure API Gateway to use a Cognito User Pool authorizer.

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: Configure the SAML 2.0 IdP as a federated identity provider in a Cognito User Pool, map the SAML assertions to the corresponding user pool attributes, and configure API Gateway to use a Cognito User Pool authorizer.

Cevap

Configuring the SAML 2.0 IdP within a Cognito User Pool and mapping its assertions to user pool attributes allows the identity directory to generate JWT ID/access tokens containing the custom claims. Using the native Cognito User Pool authorizer in API Gateway validates these tokens automatically, presenting the claims to the backend integration with minimal configuration and no custom code.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Set up a Cognito User Pool and add the SAML 2.0 IdP as a federated provider using the IdP's metadata document.

Cognito User Pool is established as the directory that federates authentication to the external corporate SAML IdP.

This establishes the identity provider trust relationship and configures the user authentication source.

Configure SAML attribute mapping in Cognito User Pool settings to map incoming SAML assertions (e.g., department, employee ID) to standard or custom user pool attributes.

The federated user's identity tokens generated by Cognito (ID token and Access token) will automatically contain these mapped claims.

This ensures the backend API can access the required custom claims in the authorization payload.

Configure an API Gateway Cognito User Pool Authorizer on the API methods, referencing the user pool.

API Gateway automatically validates the incoming ID token sent in the Authorization header and passes the claims to the backend integration context.

This performs token validation and supplies the custom claims to the API with zero custom code or Lambda execution overhead.

Anahtar Kavram

Amazon Cognito User Pools support SAML 2.0 federation and direct attribute mapping, allowing standard API Gateway Cognito Authorizers to automatically validate tokens and pass mapped claims to backend integrations without custom Lambda code.

Cevap: Assign an IAM role with permissions for SQS and DynamoDB as the Task Role, and assign an IAM role with permissions for ECR and CloudWatch Logs as the Task Execution Role.

Cevap

Assign an IAM role with permissions for SQS and DynamoDB as the Task Role, and assign an IAM role with permissions for ECR and CloudWatch Logs as the Task Execution Role.

The correct configuration assigns the application permissions (SQS and DynamoDB) to the Task Role, and infrastructure/agent permissions (ECR image pull and CloudWatch logging) to the Task Execution Role. The ECS agent needs the Task Execution Role to pull the container image and set up logs before starting the container, while the application code inside the container uses the Task Role to interact with AWS services.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Identify the credentials required by the application code running inside the container.

The application code requires SQS and DynamoDB access.

The containerized application needs these permissions to execute its business logic after startup.

Identify the permissions required by the Amazon ECS container agent to provision and start the task.

The ECS agent requires ECR image pull and CloudWatch logging permissions.

These permissions are needed by the container agent before the container is running.

Map these requirements to the appropriate ECS task definition parameters.

The Task Role is assigned to the application, and the Task Execution Role is assigned to the ECS agent.

This separation follows the AWS security model and least-privilege principles.

Cevap

Store the API key in AWS Secrets Manager. Configure an AWS Lambda function to perform the rotation logic, and associate it with the secret to rotate every 90 days.

Storing the API key in AWS Secrets Manager and using a custom AWS Lambda function for rotation is the correct approach. Secrets Manager natively supports automatic rotation of secrets using Lambda functions. Since this is a third-party API key, a custom Lambda function is required to perform the rotation steps, meeting the 90-day rotation requirement with minimal custom code.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Evaluate the security and rotation requirements for the sensitive API key.

Identify that the API key must be encrypted at rest and automatically rotated every 90 days.

Establishing these requirements guides the selection of the correct AWS service that supports automatic secret rotation.

Compare AWS Secrets Manager and Systems Manager Parameter Store capabilities.

AWS Secrets Manager is selected because it provides built-in rotation functionality via integration with AWS Lambda, whereas Parameter Store does not support native automatic rotation.

Secrets Manager is designed specifically for managing secrets that require automatic rotation, while Parameter Store is suited for configuration management.

Configure the rotation mechanism for the non-AWS resource (third-party API).

A custom AWS Lambda function is configured to handle the specific rotation logic for the third-party marketing platform, and the rotation schedule is set to 90 days on the Secrets Manager secret.

Cevap: Modify the trust policy of the CrossAccountS3Reader role in Account B to allow the LambdaExecutionRole ARN from Account A to perform the sts:AssumeRole action.; Attach a permissions policy to the LambdaExecutionRole in Account A that grants sts:AssumeRole permission on the CrossAccountS3Reader role ARN in Account B.

Cevap

Modifying the trust policy of the target role in Account B to trust the execution role in Account A, and attaching an STS assume role policy to the execution role in Account A.

The correct options state that you must modify the trust policy of the destination role in the target account to trust the source execution role, and attach a policy to the source execution role in the origin account allowing it to assume the destination role. Both parts are mandatory to establish cross-account trust.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Configure the target role trust relationship

The trust policy of the CrossAccountS3Reader role in Account B is updated to list the ARN of LambdaExecutionRole from Account A as a principal and allow the sts:AssumeRole action.

This establishes trust from the destination account's perspective, permitting the identity from the source account to assume the role.

Grant assume role permissions to the source identity

An identity-based permissions policy is attached to LambdaExecutionRole in Account A, allowing the sts:AssumeRole action on the ARN of the CrossAccountS3Reader role.

This grants the source identity the necessary API permission to invoke the AWS STS assume role command.

Cevap: Configure an Amazon Cognito user pool with SAML federation for user authentication, and associate it with an Amazon Cognito identity pool to obtain temporary AWS credentials for Amazon S3 uploads.; Configure the API Gateway REST API to use a Cognito user pool authorizer to validate the ID or access tokens sent by the application.

Cevap

Configure an Amazon Cognito user pool with SAML federation for user authentication, and associate it with an Amazon Cognito identity pool to obtain temporary AWS credentials for Amazon S3 uploads; and configure the API Gateway REST API to use a Cognito user pool authorizer to validate the ID or access tokens sent by the application.

The correct configurations involve using an Amazon Cognito user pool federated with the SAML provider for authentication, and integrating it with an Amazon Cognito identity pool to supply temporary AWS credentials to the client for Amazon S3 uploads. Additionally, the developer should secure the API Gateway REST API using the built-in Cognito user pool authorizer to validate user tokens.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Set up federated authentication with SAML by configuring an Amazon Cognito user pool to manage the user directory.

Users can log in via their enterprise identity provider and receive Cognito JSON Web Tokens (JWTs) representing their authenticated session.

This establishes the identity of the users using the existing SAML identity provider.

Configure an Amazon Cognito identity pool, link the user pool as an identity provider, and map authenticated users to an IAM role with S3 write access.

The client application can exchange the user pool tokens for temporary AWS IAM credentials with permissions restricted to the user's specific S3 folder.

This enables secure direct uploads from the mobile application to S3 without exposing permanent credentials or routing uploads through an intermediary backend.

Configure the API Gateway REST API with a Cognito User Pool Authorizer pointing to the created user pool.

API Gateway automatically intercepts incoming API requests, extracts the authorization header token, and validates it against the user pool before forwarding the request to downstream integrations.

This secures the REST API endpoints using the built-in, low-overhead Cognito authorization mechanism.

A developer is designing a single-page web application where users sign in with their email address and password. After authentication, the application must be able to call a secure backend REST API hosted on Amazon API Gateway and download user-specific profile images directly from a private Amazon S3 bucket. Which two actions should the developer take to meet these requirements with the least operational overhead?

Geçerli olan tümünü seçin

Configure an Amazon Cognito User Pool to manage user authentication, and use the built-in Cognito User Pool Authorizer in API Gateway to validate the identity token (ID token) presented by the client application.

Configure an Amazon Cognito Identity Pool linked to the User Pool, and map an IAM role to authenticated users that provides read access to the specific Amazon S3 prefix.

Embed IAM user access keys directly inside the client application code, and call the AWS STS AssumeRole API to retrieve credentials for S3 access.

Create a custom Lambda Authorizer in API Gateway that makes a direct query to the Cognito User Pool backend database to verify user credentials on every request.

Configure the S3 Bucket Policy to inspect the HTTP Authorization header and directly validate the JSON Web Tokens (JWTs) generated by the Cognito User Pool.

Cevap: Configure an Amazon Cognito User Pool to manage user authentication, and use the built-in Cognito User Pool Authorizer in API Gateway to validate the identity token (ID token) presented by the client application.; Configure an Amazon Cognito Identity Pool linked to the User Pool, and map an IAM role to authenticated users that provides read access to the specific Amazon S3 prefix.

Cevap

Configure an Amazon Cognito User Pool for user authentication alongside a built-in Cognito User Pool Authorizer in API Gateway, and configure an Amazon Cognito Identity Pool to delegate temporary AWS IAM credentials for S3 access.

The correct architecture uses a Cognito User Pool for managing user directories and generating JSON Web Tokens (JWTs) for API Gateway authorization via the built-in Cognito User Pool Authorizer. In addition, an Amazon Cognito Identity Pool maps the authenticated Cognito User Pool identities to temporary AWS IAM credentials, allowing the application to securely download private files directly from Amazon S3.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Set up authentication directory

Amazon Cognito User Pool is configured to register and authenticate users via email and password.

This establishes the identity store and handles user sign-in flows.

Secure the API Gateway REST API

API Gateway is configured with a Cognito User Pool Authorizer linked to the User Pool.

This offloads token verification directly to API Gateway without requiring custom Lambda code.

Secure direct S3 access

An Amazon Cognito Identity Pool is created with the User Pool set as the authentication provider, and an authenticated IAM Role is associated with the required S3 read permissions.

This enables the client-side app to exchange the User Pool token for temporary AWS IAM credentials to interact directly with S3.

An enterprise web application running on Amazon EC2 instances needs to authenticate with an Amazon RDS for PostgreSQL database. The database password must be rotated every 30 days to comply with security requirements. The developer wants to implement a secure solution that automates the rotation process with the least operational overhead. Which approach should the developer take to meet these requirements?

Store the database password in AWS Secrets Manager. Enable automatic rotation, choose the target RDS database, and configure a rotation interval of 30 days. Retrieve the secret dynamically in the application using the AWS SDK.

Store the database password as a SecureString parameter in AWS Systems Manager Parameter Store. Enable built-in automatic rotation in the Parameter Store settings for RDS and configure a rotation interval of 30 days.

Store the database credentials in a secure configuration file packaged with the application. Initialize the AWS SDK client inside the application by hardcoding temporary IAM user access keys that have permission to read the configuration file.

Store the database password as a standard String parameter in AWS Systems Manager Parameter Store. Use a local cron job on the EC2 instances to retrieve the parameter using hardcoded AWS access keys and rotate the password in the database.

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: Store the database password in AWS Secrets Manager. Enable automatic rotation, choose the target RDS database, and configure a rotation interval of 30 days. Retrieve the secret dynamically in the application using the AWS SDK.

Cevap

AWS Secrets Manager natively supports automatic rotation of database credentials, including built-in templates for Amazon RDS databases. By enabling rotation and selecting the target RDS database, Secrets Manager automatically updates the database password and the secret value at the specified interval using a managed Lambda function. The application can query Secrets Manager via the AWS SDK at runtime using IAM roles, ensuring it always uses the current credentials without requiring code changes or redeployments.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Identify the security requirements: password rotation every 30 days, minimal operational overhead, and secure runtime access by the application.

Recognize that database credential rotation is natively supported by AWS Secrets Manager for Amazon RDS databases, whereas Parameter Store lacks native database rotation integration.

Choosing the service with native rotation integration minimizes custom script maintenance and operational overhead.

Evaluate the credential retrieval method from the application running on EC2.

Ensure the application retrieves the database password dynamically at runtime using the AWS SDK, authenticated via temporary credentials from an IAM instance profile.

Dynamic retrieval ensures the application uses the latest password post-rotation, and IAM instance profiles avoid the security risk of hardcoding AWS access keys.

A developer is setting up an AWS CodeBuild project to automate a build pipeline. The project is configured to use a custom service role named CodeBuildServiceRole to access AWS resources. However, when starting a build run, the build fails immediately during the provisioning phase with the following error:

Failed to assume role: CodeBuild is not authorized to perform: sts:AssumeRole on the role CodeBuildServiceRole

The developer examines the trust policy for CodeBuildServiceRole, which contains the following JSON document:

{
"Version": "2012-10-17",
"Statement": [
{
"Effect": "Allow",
"Principal": {
"Service": "ec2.amazonaws.com"
},
"Action": "sts:AssumeRole"
}
]
}

Which modification should the developer make to the trust policy to resolve this error?

Attach an IAM permissions policy to the role that grants the sts:AssumeRole action to codebuild.amazonaws.com.

Change the Service principal in the trust policy statement from ec2.amazonaws.com to codebuild.amazonaws.com.

Configure the buildspec.yml file to define temporary AWS access keys and secret keys under the environment variables section.

Modify the Principal element of the trust policy to use "AWS": "codebuild.amazonaws.com" instead of the Service block.

Cevap: Change the Service principal in the trust policy statement from ec2.amazonaws.com to codebuild.amazonaws.com.

Cevap

Change the Service principal in the trust policy statement from ec2.amazonaws.com to codebuild.amazonaws.com.

The correct action is to update the trust policy's Principal to allow the CodeBuild service (codebuild.amazonaws.com) to assume the role. The error occurs because the trust policy currently only trusts the EC2 service (ec2.amazonaws.com) to assume it.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Analyze the error message indicating that CodeBuild is not authorized to assume the role.

Identify that the issue lies in the role's trust relationship rather than the permissions policy.

The error message explicitly points to sts:AssumeRole authorization failure for the CodeBuild service principal.

Examine the role's trust policy document.

Observe that the Principal block currently specifies "Service": "ec2.amazonaws.com".

The role currently trusts only the EC2 service to assume it, preventing other services like CodeBuild from performing the sts:AssumeRole operation.

Modify the Service principal to target the correct service.

Change the Principal to "Service": "codebuild.amazonaws.com".

This establishes a trust relationship that explicitly authorizes the AWS CodeBuild service to assume the role during build execution.

Anahtar Kavram

An IAM role requires a trust policy (trust relationship) that designates which principal (e.g., an AWS service like CodeBuild) is allowed to assume the role via the sts:AssumeRole action.

A developer is building an AWS Lambda function that integrates with an external customer relationship management (CRM) platform. The integration requires a client secret that must be stored securely and rotated automatically every 30 days. Which solution meets these requirements with the least operational overhead?

Hardcode the client secret in the Lambda function's source code, and use a customer managed key in AWS Key Management Service (AWS KMS) to encrypt the function deployment package.

Store the client secret in AWS Secrets Manager. Configure automatic rotation for the secret by defining a rotation schedule of 30 days and using an AWS Lambda function to perform the rotation.

Store the client secret in AWS Systems Manager Parameter Store as a SecureString parameter. Set up an Amazon EventBridge scheduled rule to trigger a custom AWS Lambda function that updates the parameter value every 30 days.

Store the client secret in AWS Systems Manager Parameter Store as a String parameter, and reference the parameter value directly in the Lambda function's environment variables.

Cevap: Store the client secret in AWS Secrets Manager. Configure automatic rotation for the secret by defining a rotation schedule of 30 days and using an AWS Lambda function to perform the rotation.

Cevap

Store the client secret in AWS Secrets Manager, and configure automatic rotation for the secret using a 30-day schedule and an AWS Lambda function to execute the rotation.

AWS Secrets Manager is the optimal service for storing sensitive API keys and secrets that require automatic rotation. It features built-in support for rotating secrets on a defined schedule using a Lambda function. This native integration reduces administrative overhead compared to building custom rotation tools.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Evaluate the security and rotation requirements for the sensitive CRM client secret.

Identify that the secret must be encrypted and must support automated rotation every 30 days with minimal operational overhead.

This establishes the criteria for selecting between AWS Secrets Manager and Systems Manager Parameter Store.

Compare AWS Secrets Manager and AWS Systems Manager Parameter Store features.

Determine that while Parameter Store supports SecureString parameters, it does not offer built-in rotation functionality. Secrets Manager natively supports automatic rotation via Lambda on a schedule.

This eliminates Parameter Store options due to the lack of built-in rotation capabilities.

Select the correct option based on security best practices.

Store the secret in Secrets Manager and configure automatic rotation.

This fulfills all requirements with the least operational effort.

Cevap: Create an Amazon Cognito User Pool to handle user authentication, federation with social identity providers, and token generation.; Create an Amazon Cognito Identity Pool, integrate it with the User Pool, and map an IAM role to obtain temporary AWS credentials for S3 access.

Cevap

To implement this flow, the developer should create an Amazon Cognito User Pool to handle user authentication and social provider federation, and create an Amazon Cognito Identity Pool linked to the User Pool to authorize users by providing temporary AWS IAM credentials for S3 access.

For the social identity authentication, the application needs an Amazon Cognito User Pool to serve as the user directory and handle federation. To authorize the client to upload files to Amazon S3, the application must exchange the User Pool tokens for temporary AWS security credentials, which is the primary function of an Amazon Cognito Identity Pool.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Set up authentication

Configure an Amazon Cognito User Pool, set up social identity providers, and establish client application settings to receive JWTs upon successful sign-in.

This establishes the identity directory and federated login capabilities for the mobile application.

Set up authorization for AWS resources

Configure an Amazon Cognito Identity Pool, register the User Pool as an identity provider, and associate an IAM role with permissions to the specific S3 folder.

This allows the authenticated user's JWTs to be exchanged for temporary, scoped AWS credentials, granting the client application access to Amazon S3.

Cevap

Configure the trust policy of the authenticated IAM role to allow the federated principal

\text{cognito-identity.amazonaws.com}

to call the

\text{sts:AssumeRoleWithWebIdentity}

action. Additionally, in the IAM permissions policy attached to this role, allow the

\text{s3:PutObject}

action on the resource path

\text{arn:aws:s3:::app-user-data/cognito/}\$\{cognito-identity.amazonaws.com:sub\}/*

To allow client-side users authenticated with Cognito Identity Pools to access AWS resources, the authenticated IAM role must establish a trust relationship with the identity pool provider principal

\text{cognito-identity.amazonaws.com}

and allow the

\text{sts:AssumeRoleWithWebIdentity}

API action. To secure user uploads to S3, the attached permissions policy must grant

\text{s3:PutObject}

access to the user-specific prefix, utilizing the dynamic policy variable

\$\$\{cognito-identity.amazonaws.com:sub\}

to enforce user isolation.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Configure the trust policy of the IAM role to permit web identity federation.

The identity pool service principal

\text{cognito-identity.amazonaws.com}

is allowed to assume the role using

\text{sts:AssumeRoleWithWebIdentity}

This establishes trust between Amazon Cognito Identity Pools and the IAM role, enabling the exchange of Cognito tokens for temporary AWS security credentials.

Define dynamic resource-level S3 permissions using Cognito policy variables.

The IAM policy allows

\text{s3:PutObject}

specifically on resource

\text{arn:aws:s3:::app-user-data/cognito/}\$\{cognito-identity.amazonaws.com:sub\}/*

The dynamic variable

\$\$\{cognito-identity.amazonaws.com:sub\}

resolves to the current user's unique identity ID at runtime, isolating S3 uploads per user.

Cevap

The correct option correctly identifies the separation of concerns: using a Cognito User Pool for user authentication, a Cognito Identity Pool to authorize direct AWS resource access (S3) via temporary credentials, and a built-in Cognito User Pool authorizer to protect the API Gateway endpoints. This represents the most operationally efficient architecture.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Identify the authentication directory requirements.

Determine that user registration, sign-in, and profile directory management should be handled by an Amazon Cognito User Pool.

User Pools provide authentication, registration, and directory features for client applications.

Establish a secure mechanism for direct browser-to-S3 access.

Implement an Amazon Cognito Identity Pool configured with the User Pool as an identity provider to vend temporary, limited-privilege AWS credentials via IAM roles.

Identity Pools authorize users to access AWS resources (like S3) directly without exposing long-term credentials or routing requests through an intermediate backend.

Select the most efficient API Gateway authorizer.

Configure a native API Gateway Cognito User Pool Authorizer to secure the REST API endpoints using the tokens issued by the User Pool.

The built-in Cognito authorizer validates JWTs natively, eliminating the need to write, test, and pay for a custom Lambda authorizer function.
