AWS Certified Security - Specialty Questions and Answers

Question 149

A Security Engineer must design a system that can detect whether a file on an Amazon EC2 host has been modified. The system must then alert the Security Engineer of the modification.

What is the MOST efficient way to meet these requirements?

Options:

A.

Install antivirus software and ensure that signatures are up-to-date. Configure Amazon CloudWatch alarms to send alerts for security events.

B.

Install host-based IDS software to check for file integrity. Export the logs to Amazon CloudWatch Logs for monitoring and alerting.

C.

Export system log files to Amazon S3. Parse the log files using an IAM Lambda function that will send alerts of any unauthorized system login attempts through Amazon SNS.

D.

Use Amazon CloudWatch Logs to detect file system changes. If a change is detected, automatically terminate and recreate the instance from the most recent AMI. Use Amazon SNS to send notification of the event.

Question 150

A Security Engineer has created an Amazon CloudWatch event that invokes an IAM Lambda function daily. The Lambda function runs an Amazon Athena query that checks IAM CloudTrail logs in Amazon S3 to detect whether any IAM user accounts or credentials have been created in the past 30 days. The results of the Athena query are created in the same S3 bucket. The Engineer runs a test execution of the Lambda function via the IAM Console, and the function runs successfully.

After several minutes, the Engineer finds that his Athena query has failed with the error message: “Insufficient Permissions”. The IAM permissions of the Security Engineer and the Lambda function are shown below:
