Question # 12

A company is using AWS to run digital workloads. Each application team in the companyhas its own AWS account for application hosting. The accounts are consolidated in anorganization in AWS Organizations.The company wants to enforce security standards across the entire organization. To avoidnoncompliance because of security misconfiguration, the company has enforced the use ofAWS CloudFormation. A production support team can modify resources in the productionenvironment by using the AWS Management Console to troubleshoot and resolve application-related issues.A DevOps engineer must implement a solution to identify in near real time any AWSservice misconfiguration that results in noncompliance. The solution must automaticallyremediate the issue within 15 minutes of identification. The solution also must tracknoncompliant resources and events in a centralized dashboard with accurate timestamps.Which solution will meet these requirements with the LEAST development overhead?

A. Use CloudFormation drift detection to identify noncompliant resources. Use driftdetection events from CloudFormation to invoke an AWS Lambda function for remediation.Configure the Lambda function to publish logs to an Amazon CloudWatch Logs log group.Configure an Amazon CloudWatch dashboard to use the log group for tracking.
B. Turn on AWS CloudTrail in the AWS accounts. Analyze CloudTrail logs by usingAmazon Athena to identify noncompliant resources. Use AWS Step Functions to trackquery results on Athena for drift detection and to invoke an AWS Lambda function forremediation. For tracking, set up an Amazon QuickSight dashboard that uses Athena asthe data source.
C. Turn on the configuration recorder in AWS Config in all the AWS accounts to identifynoncompliant resources. Enable AWS Security Hub with the ~no-enable-default-standardsoption in all the AWS accounts. Set up AWS Config managed rules and custom rules. Setup automatic remediation by using AWS Config conformance packs. For tracking, set up adashboard on Security Hub in a designated Security Hub administrator account.
D. Turn on AWS CloudTrail in the AWS accounts. Analyze CloudTrail logs by usingAmazon CloudWatch Logs to identify noncompliant resources. Use CloudWatch Logsfilters for drift detection. Use Amazon EventBridge to invoke the Lambda function forremediation. Stream filtered CloudWatch logs to Amazon OpenSearch Service. Set up adashboard on OpenSearch Service for tracking.
