Question 1

A company recently implemented a security policy that prohibits developers from launching VPC network infrastructure. The policy states that any time a NAT gateway is launched in a VPC, the company's network security team must immediately receive an alert to terminate the NAT gateway. The network security team needs to implement a solution that can be deployed across AWS accounts with the least possible administrative overhead. The solution also must provide the network security team with a simple way to view compliance history. Which solution will meet these requirements?

A : Develop a script that programmatically checks for NAT gateways in an AWS account, sends an email alert, and terminates the NAT gateway if a NAT gateway is detected. Deploy the script on an Amazon EC2 instance in each account. Use a cron job to run the script every 5 minutes. Log the results of the checks to an Amazon RDS for MySQL database.

B : Create an AWS Lambda function that programmatically checks for NAT gateways in an AWS account, sends an email alert, and terminates the NAT gateway if a NAT gateway is detected. Deploy the Lambda function to each account by using AWS Serverless Application Model (AWS SAM) templates. Store the results of the checks on an Amazon OpenSearch Service cluster in each account.

C : Enable Amazon GuardDuty. Create an Amazon EventBridge rule for the Behavior:EC2/NATGatewayCreation GuardDuty finding type. Configure the rule to invoke an AWS Step Functions state machine to send an email alert and terminate a NAT gateway if a NAT gateway is detected. Store the runtime log as a text file in an Amazon S3 bucket.

D : Create a custom AWS Config rule that checks for NAT gateways in an AWS account. Configure the AWS Config rule to perform an AWS Systems Manager Automation remediation action to send an email alert and terminate the NAT gateway if a NAT gateway is detected. Deploy the AWS Config rule and the Systems Manager runbooks to each account by using AWS CloudFormation StackSets

Answer: D

Question 2

A company uses AWS Network Firewall to protect outgoing traffic for multiple VPCs that are in the same AWS account. Each VPC contains Amazon EC2 instances that host the company's applications. Each EC2 instance is tagged with the name of the application it hosts. The EC2 instances are in Auto Scaling groups. A Network Firewall stateful rule group must remain up-to-date, even when an Auto Scaling group launches and terminates EC2 instances. Which solution will meet this requirement with the LEAST implementation and administrative effort?

A : Create a network ACL for each application. Reference the network ACL in the stateful rule group.

B : Create a prefix list for each application. Reference the prefix list in the stateful rule group.

C : Create an AWS Lambda function that queries the EC2 instance tags for each application name and then updates the stateful rule group with the IP address of each instance.

D : Create a resource group for each application name. Reference the Amazon Resource Name (ARN) for the resource groups in the stateful rule group.

Answer: B

Answer: B

Question 4

A company is deploying a web application into two AWS Regions. The company has one VPC in each Region. Each VPC has three Amazon EC2 instances as web servers behind an Application Load Balancer (ALB). The company already has configured an Amazon Route 53 public hosted zone for example.com. Users will access the application by using the fully qualified domain name (FQDN) of app.example.com. The company needs a DNS solution that allows global users to access the application. The solution must route the users' requests to the Region that provides the lowest response time. The solution must fail over to the Region that provides the next-lowest response time if the application is unavailable in the initially intended Region. Which solution will meet these requirements?

A : For each ALB, create an A record that has a geolocation routing policy to route app.example.com to the IP addresses of the ALB. Configure a Route 53 HTTP health check that monitors each ALB by IP address. Associate the health check with the A records.

B : Create an A record that has a geolocation routing policy to route app.example.com to the IP addresses for both ALBs. Configure a Route 53 health check that monitors TCP port 80 for each ALB by IP address. Associate the health check with the A records.

C : Create an A record that has a latency-based routing policy to route app.example.com as an alias to one of the ALBs. Configure a Route 53 health check that monitors TCP port 80 for each ALB by IP address. Associate the health check with the A records.

D : For each ALB, create an A record that has a latency-based routing policy to route app.example.com as an alias to the ALB. Set the value for Evaluate Target Health to Yes for the records.

Answer: D

Question 5

A department in your company has created a new account that is not part of the organization's consolidated billing family. The department has also created a VPC for its workload. Access is restricted by network access control lists to the department's on-premises private IP allocation. An AWS Direct Connect private virtual interface for this VPC advertises a default route to the company network. When the department downloads data from an Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud(EC2) instance in its new VPC, what are the associated charges?

A : company pays Internet Data Out charges.

B : company pays AWS Direct Connect Data Out charges.

C : department pays Internet Data Out charges.

D : department pays AWS Direct Connect Data Out charges.

Answer: D
