AWS Certified Security - Specialty (Replaced with SCS-C03) Questions 76–80 (page: 17)

Updated On: 10-Feb-2026

A company's security team needs to receive a notification whenever an AWS access key has not been rotated in 90 or more days. A security engineer must develop a solution that provides these notifications automatically.
Which solution will meet these requirements with the LEAST amount of effort?

  1. Deploy an AWS Config managed rule to run on a periodic basis of 24 hours. Select the access-keys-rotated managed rule, and set the maxAccessKeyAge parameter to 90 days. Create an Amazon EventBridge rule with an event pattern that matches the compliance type of NON_ COMPLIANT from AWS Config for the managed rule. Configure EventBridge to send an Amazon Simple Notification Service (Amazon SNS) notification to the security team.
  2. Create a script to export a .csv file from the AWS Trusted Advisor check for IAM access key rotation. Load the script into an AWS Lambda function that will upload the .csv file to an Amazon S3 bucket. Create an Amazon Athena table query that runs when the .csv file is uploaded to the S3 bucket. Publish the results for any keys older than 90 days by using an invocation of an Amazon Simple Notification Service (Amazon SNS) notification to the security team.
  3. Create a script to download the IAM credentials report on a periodic basis. Load the script into an AWS Lambda function that will run on a schedule through Amazon EventBridge. Configure the Lambda script to load the report into memory and to filter the report for records in which the key was last rotated at least 90 days ago. If any records are detected, send an Amazon Simple Notification Service (Amazon SNS) notification to the security team.
  4. Create an AWS Lambda function that queries the IAM API to list all the users. Iterate through the users by using the ListAccessKeys operation. Verify that the value in the CreateDate field is not at least 90 days old. Send an Amazon Simple Notification Service (Amazon SNS) notification to the security team if the value is at least 90 days old. Create an Amazon EventBridge rule to schedule the Lambda function to run each day.

Answer(s): A



A company maintains an open-source application that is hosted on a public GitHub repository. While creating a new commit to the repository, an engineer uploaded their AWS access key and secret access key. The engineer reported the mistake to a manager, and the manager immediately disabled the access key.
The company needs to assess the impact of the exposed access key. A security engineer must recommend a solution that requires the least possible managerial overhead.
Which solution meets these requirements?

  1. Analyze an AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) use report from AWS Trusted Advisor to see when the access key was last used.
  2. Analyze Amazon CloudWatch Logs for activity by searching for the access key.
  3. Analyze VPC flow logs for activity by searching for the access key.
  4. Analyze a credential report in AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) to see when the access key was last used.

Answer(s): D



A company plans to create individual child accounts within an existing organization in AWS Organizations for each of its DevOps teams. AWS CloudTrail has been enabled and configured on all accounts to write audit logs to an Amazon S3 bucket in a centralized AWS account. A security engineer needs to ensure that DevOps team members are unable to modify or disable this configuration.
How can the security engineer meet these requirements?

  1. Create an IAM policy that prohibits changes to the specific CloudTrail trail and apply the policy to the AWS account root user.
  2. Create an S3 bucket policy in the specified destination account for the CloudTrail trail that prohibits configuration changes from the AWS account root user in the source account.
  3. Create an SCP that prohibits changes to the specific CloudTrail trail and apply the SCP to the appropriate organizational unit or account in Organizations.
  4. Create an IAM policy that prohibits changes to the specific CloudTrail trail and apply the policy to a new IAM group. Have team members use individual IAM accounts that are members of the new IAM group.

Answer(s): C



A company's policy requires that all API keys be encrypted and stored separately from source code in a centralized security account. This security account is managed by the company's security team. However, an audit revealed that an API key is stored with the source code of an AWS Lambda function in an AWS CodeCommit repository in the DevOps account.
How should the security team securely store the API key?

  1. Create a CodeCommit repository in the security account using AWS Key Management Service (AWS KMS) for encryption. Require the development team to migrate the Lambda source code to this repository.
  2. Store the API key in an Amazon S3 bucket in the security account using server-side encryption with Amazon S3 managed encryption keys (SSE-S3) to encrypt the key. Create a presigned URL for the S3 key, and specify the URL in a Lambda environmental variable in the AWS CloudFormation template. Update the Lambda function code to retrieve the key using the URL and call the API.
  3. Create a secret in AWS Secrets Manager in the security account to store the API key using AWS Key Management Service (AWS KMS) for encryption. Grant access to the IAM role used by the Lambda function so that the function can retrieve the key from Secrets Manager and call the API.
  4. Create an encrypted environment variable for the Lambda function to store the API key using AWS Key Management Service (AWS KMS) for encryption. Grant access to the IAM role used by the Lambda function so that the function can decrypt the key at runtime.

Answer(s): C



A security engineer is asked to update an AWS CloudTrail log file prefix for an existing trail. When attempting to save the change in the CloudTrail console, the security engineer receives the following error message: "There is a problem with the bucket policy."
What will enable the security engineer to save the change?

  1. Create a new trail with the updated log file prefix, and then delete the original trail. Update the existing bucket policy in the Amazon S3 console with the new log file prefix, and then update the log file prefix in the CloudTrail console.
  2. Update the existing bucket policy in the Amazon S3 console to allow the security engineer's principal to perform PutBucketPolicy, and then update the log file prefix in the CloudTrail console.
  3. Update the existing bucket policy in the Amazon S3 console with the new log file prefix, and then update the log file prefix in the CloudTrail console.
  4. Update the existing bucket policy in the Amazon S3 console to allow the security engineer's principal to perform GetBucketPolicy, and then update the log file prefix in the CloudTrail console.
