Exam AWS Certified Solutions Architect - Associate SAA-C03 topic 1 question 392 discussion

A company wants to deploy a new public web application on AWS. The application includes a web server tier that uses Amazon EC2 instances. The application also includes a database tier that uses an Amazon RDS for MySQL DB instance.

The application must be secure and accessible for global customers that have dynamic IP addresses.

How should a solutions architect configure the security groups to meet these requirements?

  • A. Configure the security group for the web servers to allow inbound traffic on port 443 from 0.0.0.0/0. Configure the security group for the DB instance to allow inbound traffic on port 3306 from the security group of the web servers.
  • B. Configure the security group for the web servers to allow inbound traffic on port 443 from the IP addresses of the customers. Configure the security group for the DB instance to allow inbound traffic on port 3306 from the security group of the web servers.
  • C. Configure the security group for the web servers to allow inbound traffic on port 443 from the IP addresses of the customers. Configure the security group for the DB instance to allow inbound traffic on port 3306 from the IP addresses of the customers.
  • D. Configure the security group for the web servers to allow inbound traffic on port 443 from 0.0.0.0/0. Configure the security group for the DB instance to allow inbound traffic on port 3306 from 0.0.0.0/0.

"The application must be secure and accessible for global customers that have dynamic IP addresses." This just means "anyone" so BC are wrong as you cannot know in advance about the dynamic IP addresses. D is just opening the DB to the internet. A is most secure as web is open to internet and db is open to web only.

The keyword is dynamic IPs from the customer, then B, C out, D out due to 0.0.0.0/0

Selected Answer: A
It allows HTTPS access from any public IP address, meeting the requirement for global customer access. HTTPS provides encryption for secure communication. And for the database security group, only allowing inbound port 3306 from the web server security group properly restricts access to only the resources that need it.

Selected Answer: A
dynamic source ips = allow all traffic - Configure the security group for the web servers to allow inbound traffic on port 443 from 0.0.0.0/0. Configure the security group for the DB instance to allow inbound traffic on port 3306 from the security group of the web servers.

If the customers have dynamic IP addresses, option A would be the most appropriate solution for allowing global access while maintaining security.

Correct answer is A. B and C are out. D is out because it is accepting traffic from every where instead of from webservers only
