A company is using AWS WAF to protect a customized public API service that is based on Amazon EC2 instances. The API uses an Application Load Balancer. The AWS WAF web ACL is configured with an AWS Managed Rules rule group. After a software upgrade to the API and the client application, some types of requests are no longer working and are causing application stability issues. A security engineer discovers that AWS WAF logging is not turned on for the web ACL.
The security engineer needs to immediately return the application to service, resolve the issue, and ensure that logging is not turned off in the future. The security engineer turns on logging for the web ACL and specifies Amazon CloudWatch Logs as the destination.
Which additional set of steps should the security engineer take to meet the requirements?
A company is operating an open-source software platform that is internet facing. The legacy software platform no longer receives security updates. The software platform operates using Amazon Route 53 weighted load balancing to send traffic to two Amazon EC2 instances that connect to an Amazon RDS cluster. A recent report suggests this software platform is vulnerable to SQL injection attacks, with samples of attacks provided. The company’s security engineer must secure this system against SQL injection attacks within 24 hours. The security engineer’s solution must involve the least amount of effort and maintain normal operations during implementation.
What should the security engineer do to meet these requirements?
A company uses SAML federation with IAM to provide internal users with SSO for their AWS accounts. The company’s identity provider certificate was rotated as part of its normal lifecycle. Shortly after, users started receiving the following error when attempting to log in:
“Error: Response Signature Invalid (Service: AWSSecurityTokenService; Status Code: 400; Error Code: InvalidIdentityToken)”
A security engineer needs to address the immediate issue and ensure that it will not occur again.
Which combination of steps should the security engineer take to accomplish this? (Select TWO.)
A company runs an internet-accessible application on several Amazon EC2 instances that run Windows Server. The company used an instance profile to configure the EC2 instances. A security team currently accesses the VPC that hosts the EC2 instances by using an AWS Site-to-Site VPN tunnel from an on-premises office. The security team issues a policy that requires all external access to the VPC to be blocked in the event of a security incident. However, during an incident, the security team must be able to access the EC2 instances to obtain forensic information on the instances.
Which solution will meet these requirements?
