You have discovered a number of unauthorized API calls have been made in your development environment over the last week, including changes to Security Groups, routing tables and the addition of an Internet Gateway. When you ask the development team leader about this, they are surprised because nobody in the team is supposed to have permission to perform these actions. You suspect that somebody in your organization has been making unauthorized changes to IAM permissions which has allowed people in the development team to have elevated privileges. How can you investigate what has happened?
Use Athena to query your CloudTrail data and compare the IAM permissions before the incident with the current IAM permissions
Generate a Credential Report and compare the IAM permissions before the incident with the current IAM permissions
Compare the IAM permissions before the incident with the current IAM permissions using AWS Config
Compare the IAM permissions before the incident with the current IAM permissions using CloudTrail
Your Head of Infrastructure suspects that some of your EC2 instances have been compromised and are being used for bitcoin mining. Which of the following services can you use to quickly determine if that is really the case?
Check your DNS logs to see if any of your instances are querying a domain name that is associated with cryptocurrency-related activity
Use Amazon Inspector to check if any of your instances are querying a domain name that is associated with cryptocurrency-related activity
Check your VPC Flow logs to see if any of your instances are querying a domain name that is associated with cryptocurrency-related activity
Use AWS GuardDuty to see if any of your instances are querying a domain name that is associated with cryptocurrency-related activity
You have been asked to design a solution to perform deep packet inspection, which of the following can you use?
AWS Inspector

AWS Network Firewall
GuardDuty
You have recently fallen victim to a malicious attack that resulted in some of your EC2 instances being compromised. As part of your Incident Response Plan, one of the critical steps is to isolate any compromised instances so that they cannot communicate with any other instances in your VPC or with any third party command and control server. Your head of security has asked you to recommend a way to do this automatically. What do you recommend?
Use Lambda to create a restrictive Security Group which only allows SSH from a single forensic workstation. Use AWS Config to replace the Security Group to the instance as soon as it is detected as being compromised.

Your Lambda function needs to write to the ev_charge_stations, ev_networks and ev_plugs DynamoDB tables. From a security perspective, select the best answer that describes the most suitable policy.
Configure the resource and action values as 'arn:aws:dynamodb:region:account-id:table/' and 'dynamodb:'
For the resource value, specify all 3 tables individually, e.g. 'arn:aws:dynamodb:region:account-ID:table/ev_charge_stations' and use 'dynamodb:PutItem' as the policy's action value.
Use '*' as the resource value and specify 'dynamodb:PutItem' as the policy's action value.
Specify 'dynamodb:PutItem' as the policy's action value and use 'arn:aws:dynamodb:region:account-id:table/ev_*' as the value for the resource.
