 Impact of Removing FullAWSAccess and Adding Policy for EC2 Actions:

The FullAWSAccess policy allows all actions on all resources by default. Removing this policy from the Department OU will limit the permissions that accounts within this OU inherit from the parent OU.

Adding a policy that allows only Amazon EC2 API operations will restrict the permissions to EC2 actions only.

 Permissions of Administrative IAM Roles:

The administrative IAM roles in the Engineering OU have the AdministratorAccess policy attached, which grants full access to all AWS services and resources.

Since SCPs are restrictions that apply at the organizational level, removing FullAWSAccess and replacing it with a policy allowing only EC2 actions means that for all accounts in the Engineering OU:

They will have full access to EC2 actions due to the new SCP.

They will be restricted in other actions that are not covered by the SCP, hence, non-EC2 API actions will be denied.

 Conclusion:

All API actions on EC2 resources will be allowed.

All other API actions will be denied due to the absence of a broader allow policy.

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.

Service-managed StackSets are the correct low-overhead deployment model when AWS Organizations trusted access is enabled. CloudFormation creates and manages the required StackSet execution roles, so self-managed permissions are unnecessary. However, AWS explicitly states that service-managed StackSets do not deploy stacks to the organization management account, even if the management account is part of the organization or belongs to an OU. Therefore, targeting the root OU deploys to the member accounts, but the management account still needs a separate normal CloudFormation stack. Option B is the only answer that covers both the member accounts and the management account with the least operational overhead. Option A misses the management account, while C and D require unnecessary self-managed role administration.
