Exam AWS Certified Security - Specialty SCS-C02 topic 1 question 21 discussion

A company has a legacy application that runs on a single Amazon EC2 instance. A security audit shows that the application has been using an IAM access key within its code to access an Amazon S3 bucket that is named DOC-EXAMPLE-BUCKET1 in the same AWS account. This access key pair has the s3:GetObject permission to all objects in only this S3 bucket. The company takes the application offline because the application is not compliant with the company’s security policies for accessing other AWS resources from Amazon EC2.
A security engineer validates that AWS CloudTrail is turned on in all AWS Regions. CloudTrail is sending logs to an S3 bucket that is named DOC-EXAMPLE-BUCKET2. This S3 bucket is in the same AWS account as DOC-EXAMPLE-BUCKET1. However, CloudTrail has not been configured to send logs to Amazon CloudWatch Logs.
The company wants to know if any objects in DOC-EXAMPLE-BUCKET1 were accessed with the IAM access key in the past 60 days. If any objects were accessed, the company wants to know if any of the objects that are text files (.txt extension) contained personally identifiable information (PII).
Which combination of steps should the security engineer take to gather this information? (Choose two.)

  • A. Use Amazon CloudWatch Logs Insights to identify any objects in DOC-EXAMPLE-BUCKET1 that contain PII and that were available to the access key.
  • B. Use Amazon OpenSearch Service to query the CloudTrail logs in DOC-EXAMPLE-BUCKET2 for API calls that used the access key to access an object that contained PII.
  • C. Use Amazon Athena to query the CloudTrail logs in DOC-EXAMPLE-BUCKET2 for any API calls that used the access key to access an object that contained PII.
  • D. Use AWS Identity and Access Management Access Analyzer to identify any API calls that used the access key to access objects that contained PII in DOC-EXAMPLE-BUCKET1.
  • E. Configure Amazon Macie to identify any objects in DOC-EXAMPLE-BUCKET1 that contain PII and that were available to the access key.

D - using access analyzer seems to be a possible answer too: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/IAM/latest/UserGuide/logging-using-cloudtrail.html However, C should be better as Athena is used which able to return results to answer whether any object is accessed. Macie is definitely needed to answer whether PII is present.

Correction, C is only referring to the information captured in the cloudtrail through access analyzer api. You still need Athena for a quick and convenient search in the logs stored in s3. https://docs.aws.amazon.com/IAM/latest/UserGuide/logging-using-cloudtrail.html#service-name-info-in-cloudtrail
