A. Create a security group with a rule to allow TCP port 443 from source 0.0.0.0/0.

B. Create a security group with a rule to allow TCP port 443 to destination 0.0.0.0/0.

C. Update the network ACL to allow TCP port 443 from source 0.0.0.0/0.

D. Update the network ACL to allow inbound/outbound TCP port 443 from source 0.0.0.0/0 and to destination 0.0.0.0/0.

E. Update the network ACL to allow inbound TCP port 443 from source 0.0.0.0/0 and outbound TCP port 32768-65535 to destination 0.0.0.0/0.

A company uses AWS Organizations with all features enabled and runs multiple Amazon EC2 workloads in the ap-southeast-2 Region. The company has a service control policy (SCP) that prevents any resources from being created in any other Region. A security policy requires the company to encrypt all data at rest.

An audit discovers that employees have created Amazon Elastic Block Store (Amazon EBS) volumes for EC2 instances without encrypting the volumes. The company wants any new EC2 instances that any IAM user or root user launches in ap-southeast-2 to use encrypted EBS volumes. The company wants a solution that will have minimal effect on employees who create EBS volumes.

Which combination of steps will meet these requirements? (Choose two.)

A. In the Amazon EC2 console, select the EBS encryption account attribute and define a default encryption key.

B. Create an IAM permission boundary. Attach the permission boundary to the root organizational unit (OU). Define the boundary to deny the ec2:CreateVolume action when the ec2:Encrypted condition equals false.

C. Create an SCP. Attach the SCP to the root organizational unit (OU). Define the SCP to deny the ec2:CreateVolume action whenthe ec2:Encrypted condition equals false.

D. Update the IAM policies for each account to deny the ec2:CreateVolume action when the ec2:Encrypted condition equals false.

E. In the Organizations management account, specify the Default EBS volume encryption setting.

A company is conducting an internal audit. The company wants to ensure that the data in an Amazon S3 bucket that is associated with the company's AWS Lake Formation data lake does not contain sensitive customer or employee data. The company wants to discover personally identifiable information (PII) or financial information, including passport numbers and credit card numbers.

Which solution will meet these requirements?

A. Configure AWS Audit Manager on the account. Select the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standards (PCI DSS) for auditing.

B. Configure Amazon S3 Inventory on the S3 bucket Configure Amazon Athena to query the inventory.

C. Configure Amazon Macie to run a data discovery job that uses managed identifiers for the required data types.

D. Use Amazon S3 Select to run a report across the S3 bucket.

A company uses AWS Organizations with resources tagged by account. The company also uses AWS Backup to back up its AWS infrastructure resources. The company needs to back up all AWS resources.

Which solution will meet these requirements with the LEAST operational overhead?

A. Use AWS Config to identify all untagged resources. Tag the identified resources programmatically. Use tags in the backup plan.

B. Use AWS Config to identify all resources that are not running. Add those resources to the backup vault.

C. Require all AWS account owners to review their resources to identify the resources that need to be backed up.

D. Use Amazon Inspector to identify all noncompliant resources.

A company is launching an application on AWS. The application uses an Application Load (ALB) to direct traffic to at least two Amazon EC2 instances in a single target group.

The instances are in an Auto Scaling group for each environment. The company requires a development and a production environment. The production environment will have periods of high traffic. Which solution will configure the development environment MOST cost-effectively?

A. Reconfigure the target group in the development environment to have one EC2 instance as a target.

B. Change the ALB balancing algorithm to least outstanding requests.

C. Reduce the size of the EC2 instances in both environments.

D. Reduce the maximum number of EC2 instances in the development environment's Auto Scaling group

A company has an On-premises volume backup solution that has reached its end of life. The company wants to use AWS as part of a new backup solution and wants to maintain local access to all the data while it is backed up on AWS. The

company wants to ensure that the data backed up on AWS is automatically and securely transferred.

Which solution meets these requirements?

A. Use AWS Snowball to migrate data out of the on-premises solution to Amazon S3. Configure on-premises systems to mount the Snowball S3 endpoint to provide local access to the data.

B. Use AWS Snowball Edge to migrate data out of the on-premises solution to Amazon S3.Use the Snowball Edge file interface to provide on-premises systems with local access to the data.

C. Use AWS Storage Gateway and configure a cached volume gateway. Run the Storage Gateway software application on premises and configure a percentage of data to cache locally. Mount the gateway storage volumes to provide local access to the data.

D. Use AWS Storage Gateway and configure a stored volume gateway. Run the Storage software application on premises and map the gateway storage volumes to on-premises storage. Mount the gateway storage volumes to provide local access to the data.

A company runs demonstration environments for its customers on Amazon EC2 instances. Each environment is isolated in its own VPC. The company's operations team needs to be notified when RDP or SSH access to an environment has been established.

A. Configure Amazon CloudWatch Application Insights to create AWS Systems Manager OpsItems when RDP or SSH access is detected.

B. Configure the EC2 instances with an IAM instance profile that has an IAM role with the AmazonSSMManagedInstanceCore policy attached.

C. Publish VPC flow logs to Amazon CloudWatch Logs. Create required metric filters. Create an Amazon CloudWatch metric alarm with a notification action for when the alarm is in the ALARM state.

D. Configure an Amazon EventBridge rule to listen for events of type EC2 Instance State-change Notification. Configure an Amazon Simple Notification Service (Amazon SNS) topic as a target. Subscribe the operations team to the topic.

A solutions architect must design a solution that uses Amazon CloudFront with an Amazon S3 origin to store a static website. The company's security policy requires that all website traffic be inspected by AWS WAR How should the solutions architect comply with these requirements?

A. Configure an S3 bucket policy lo accept requests coming from the AWS WAF Amazon Resource Name (ARN) only.

B. Configure Amazon CloudFront to forward all incoming requests to AWS WAF before requesting content from the S3 origin.

C. Configure a security group that allows Amazon CloudFront IP addresses to access Amazon S3 only. Associate AWS WAF to CloudFront.

D. Configure Amazon CloudFront and Amazon S3 to use an origin access identity (OAI) to restrict access to the S3 bucket. Enable AWS WAF on the distribution.
