Exam AWS Certified Security - Specialty SCS-C02 topic 1 question 75 discussion

A company is using AWS Organizations to implement a multi-account strategy. The company does not have on-premises infrastructure. All workloads run on AWS. The company currently has eight member accounts. The company anticipates that it will have no more than 20 AWS accounts total at any time.

The company issues a new security policy that contains the following requirements:

• No AWS account should use a VPC within the AWS account for workloads.
• The company should use a centrally managed VPC that all AWS accounts can access to launch workloads in subnets.
• No AWS account should be able to modify another AWS account's application resources within the centrally managed VPC.
• The centrally managed VPC should reside in an existing AWS account that is named Ac-count-A within an organization.

The company uses an AWS CloudFormation template to create a VPC that contains multiple subnets in Account-A. This template exports the subnet IDs through the CloudFormation Outputs section.

Which solution will complete the security setup to meet these requirements?

  • A. Use a CloudFormation template in the member accounts to launch workloads. Configure the template to use the Fn::ImportValue function to obtain the subnet ID values.
  • B. Use a transit gateway in the VPC within Account-A. Configure the member accounts to use the transit gateway to access the subnets in Account-A to launch workloads.
  • C. Use AWS Resource Access Manager (AWS RAM) to share Account-A's VPC subnets with the remaining member accounts. Configure the member accounts to use the shared subnets to launch workloads.
  • D. Create a peering connection between Account-A and the remaining member accounts. Configure the member accounts to use the subnets in Account-A through the VPC peering connection to launch workloads.

C. Explanation: using AWS RAM, allows for centralized control over the VPC in Account-A, shared access to subnets with other member accounts, and isolation between the resources of different accounts within the VPC. This aligns well with the specified security requirements. VPC Peering or Transit Gateway: While VPC peering (Option D) or Transit Gateway (Option B) could facilitate communication between VPCs, they might not provide the level of isolation required in this scenario. With VPC peering, all resources in the peered VPCs have the ability to communicate with each other directly. CloudFormation Fn::ImportValue: While using CloudFormation's Fn::ImportValue (Option A) is a common approach to share values between stacks, in this scenario, AWS RAM provides a more structured and scalable way to share resources (subnets) across accounts.

Yes, you can use the AWS Resource Access Manager (AWS RAM) to share your subnets and resources in VPC owner, Account-A with other accounts - https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/networking-and-content-delivery/vpc-sharing-a-new-approach-to-multiple-accounts-and-vpc-management/
