Topic #: 1
[All AWS Certified Security - Specialty SCS-C02 Questions]

A security engineer is configuring a mechanism to send an alert when three or more failed sign-in attempts to the AWS Management Console occur during a 5-minute period. The security engineer creates a trail in AWS CloudTrail to assist in this work.

Which solution will meet these requirements?

  • A. In CloudTrail, turn on Insights events on the trail. Configure an alarm on the insight with eventName matching ConsoleLogin and errorMessage matching "Failed authentication''. Configure a threshold of 3 and a period of 5 minutes.
  • B. Configure CloudTrail to send events to Amazon CloudWatch Logs. Create a metric filter for the relevant log group. Create a filter pattern with eventName matching ConsoleLogin and errorMessage matching "Failed authentication". Create a CloudWatch alarm with a threshold of 3 and a period of 5 minutes.
  • C. Create an Amazon Athena table from the CloudTrail events. Run a query for eventName matching ConsoleLogin and for errorMessage matching "Failed authentication". Create a notification action from the query to send an Amazon Simple Notification Service (Amazon SNS) notification when the count equals 3 within a period of 5 minutes.
  • D. In AWS Identity and Access Management Access Analyzer, create a new analyzer. Configure the analyzer to send an Amazon Simple Notification Service (Amazon SNS) notification when a failed sign-in event occurs 3 times for any IAM user within a period of 5 minutes.

For option c, you will need Eventbridge, Lambda on top of SNS topic. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/62823521/i-need-to-create-alerts-based-on-the-results-returned-by-queries-in-amazon-athen Option b doesnt include SNS topic, but that is fine because the question ask for "alert" (you can find it in the console) but not "notification".
