Q273. A user has created an application which will be hosted on EC2. The application makes calls to DynamoDB to fetch certain data. The application is using the DynamoDB SDK to connect with from the EC2 instance. Which of the below mentioned statements is true with respect to the best practice for security in this scenario?

A. The user should create an IAM user with DynamoDB access and use its credentials within the application to connect with DynamoDB

B. The user should attach an IAM role with DynamoDB access to the EC2 instance

C. The user should create an IAM role, which has EC2 access so that it will allow deploying the application

D. The user should create an IAM user with DynamoDB and EC2 access. Attach the user with the application so that it does not use the root account credentials

Answer:

Explanation:

With AWS IAM a user is creating an application which runs on an EC2 instance and makes requests to

AWS, such as DynamoDB or S3 calls. Here it is recommended that the user should not create an IAM user and pass the user's credentials to the application or embed those credentials inside the application. Instead, the user should use roles for EC2 and give that role access to DynamoDB /S3. When the roles are attached to EC2, it will give temporary security credentials to the application hosted on that EC2, to connect with DynamoDB / S3.

Q276. You are in the process of building an online gaming site for a client and one of the requirements is that it must be able to process vast amounts of data easily. Which AWS Service would be very helpful in processing all this data?

A. Amazon S3

B. AWS Data Pipeline

C. AWS Direct Connect

D. Amazon EMR 

Answer: D

Explanation:

Managing and analyzing high data volumes produced by online games platforms can be difficult. The back-end infrastructures of online games can be challenging to maintain and operate. Peak usage periods, multiple players, and high volumes of write operations are some of the most common problems that operations teams face.

Amazon Elastic MapReduce (Amazon EMR) is a service that processes vast amounts of data easily. Input data can be retrieved from web server logs stored on Amazon S3 or from player data stored in Amazon DynamoDB tables to run analytics on player behavior, usage patterns, etc. Those results can be stored again on Amazon S3, or inserted in a relational database for further analysis with classic business intelligence tools.

Q277. A user has launched one EC2 instance in the US East region and one in the US West region. The user has launched an RDS instance in the US East region. How can the user configure access from both the EC2 instances to RDS?

A. It is not possible to access RDS of the US East region from the US West region

B. Configure the US West region’s security group to allow a request from the US East region’s instance and configure the RDS security group’s ingress rule for the US East EC2 group

C. Configure the security group of the US East region to allow traffic from the US West region’s instance and configure the RDS security group’s ingress rule for the US East EC2 group

D. Configure the security group of both instances in the ingress rule of the RDS security group 

Answer: C

Explanation:

The user cannot authorize an Amazon EC2 security group if it is in a different AWS Region than the RDS

DB instance. The user can authorize an IP range or specify an Amazon EC2 security group in the same region that refers to an IP address in another region. In this case allow IP of US West inside US East’s security group and open the RDS security group for US East region.

Q278. You have been asked to tighten up the password policies in your organization after a serious security breach, so you need to consider every possible security measure. Which of the following is not an account password policy for IAM Users that can be set?

A. Force IAM users to contact an account administrator when the user has allowed his or her password to expue.

B. A minimum password length.

C. Force IAM users to contact an account administrator when the user has entered his password incorrectly.

D. Prevent IAM users from reusing previous passwords. 

Answer: C

Explanation:

IAM users need passwords in order to access the AWS Management Console. (They do not need passwords if they will access AWS resources programmatically by using the CLI, AWS SDKs, or the APIs.)

You can use a password policy to do these things: Set a minimum password length.

Require specific character types, including uppercase letters, lowercase letters, numbers, and non-alphanumeric characters. Be sure to remind your users that passwords are case sensitive. Allow all IAM users to change their own passwords.

Require IAM users to change their password after a specified period of time (enable password expiration). Prevent IAM users from reusing previous passwords.

Force IAM users to contact an account administrator when the user has allowed his or her password to expue.
