Failed interactive logins such as ConsoleLogin are part of CloudTrail management events , not data events. The most direct, low-overhead design is to stream management events to CloudWatch Logs , then create a metric filter that matches failed ConsoleLogin events (for example, $.eventName = " ConsoleLogin " and $.responseElements.ConsoleLogin = " Failure " or $.errorMessage ). That metric is then used as the basis for a CloudWatch alarm . When the alarm threshold (e.g., N failures in a period) is breached, the alarm triggers and sends a notification to the already created SNS topic, which alerts the security team.

Option A follows this recommended pattern: CloudTrail → CloudWatch Logs → Metric Filter → Alarm → SNS. It is fully managed, near real-time, and requires minimal custom logic.

Option B uses Athena with EventBridge to periodically query CloudTrail logs in S3. This introduces more moving parts, more configuration, higher latency, and more operational overhead.

Options C and D incorrectly reference CloudTrail data events and S3 event notifications, which are not the right mechanisms to detect ConsoleLogin failures. Console logins are not S3 events, and using data events would miss these management actions.

Therefore, Option A is the correct and simplest solution.

To restrict direct access to API Gateway, add a custom header in the CloudFront distribution origin request and use a Lambda authorizer in API Gateway to validate that header. Only requests routed through CloudFront will include this header. This is the AWS-recommended pattern in “Secure your APIs behind CloudFront using custom headers and Lambda authorizers.”

Create an EC2 Image Builder Pipeline that Uses a Container Recipe to Build the Image:

EC2 Image Builder simplifies the creation, maintenance, validation, and sharing of container images.

By using a container recipe, you can define the base image, components, and validation tests for your container image.

Configure the Pipeline to Distribute the Image to Amazon Elastic Container Registry (Amazon ECR) Repositories in All Three Regions:

Amazon ECR provides a secure, scalable, and reliable container registry.

Configuring the pipeline to distribute the image to ECR repositories in us-west-2, us-east-2, and eu-central-1 ensures that the image is available in all required regions.

Configure the Pipeline to Run Weekly:

Setting the pipeline to run on a weekly schedule ensures that the base image is regularly updated and published, incorporating any new security configurations or updates.

By using EC2 Image Builder to automate the creation and distribution of the container image, the solution ensures that the base image is consistently maintained and available across multiple regions with minimal management overhead.
