Exam AWS Certified Solutions Architect - Professional topic 1 question 1007 discussion

A company is developing and hosting several projects in the AWS Cloud. The projects are developed across multiple AWS accounts under the same organization in AWS Organizations. The company requires the cost for cloud infrastructure to be allocated to the owning project. The team responsible for all of the AWS accounts has discovered that several Amazon EC2 instances are lacking the Project tag used for cost allocation.

Which actions should a solutions architect take to resolve the problem and prevent it from happening in the future? (Choose three.)

  • A. Create an AWS Config rule in each account to find resources with missing tags.
  • B. Create an SCP in the organization with a deny action for ec2:Runlnstances if the Project tag is missing.
  • C. Use Amazon Inspector in the organization to find resources with missing tags.
  • D. Create an IAM policy in each account with a deny action for ec2:Runlnstances if the Project tag is missing.
  • E. Create an AWS Config aggregator for the organization to collect a list of EC2 instances with the missing Project tag.
  • F. Use AWS Security Hub to aggregate a list of EC2 instances with the missing Project tag.

Create Config rule to find resources in all accounts. Aggregate those cross-account findings with Config aggregator so you can see it in one place. Deny ec2:RunInstances with SCP.

ABE is the right answer in my opinion. However, I believe this question is missing an option to fix the existing instances, which is one of the requirements here. Also, we don't need both option A and E. Only the method in option E is enough.

While, there is no confusion that B&E must be selected for this question. The decision to choose between option A & F can easily be taken by understanding the fact that option F (security hub) is easy to configure. Option A requires more effort. They didn't ask for the option with least effort but assume in these exam situation that they would always ask for options which are easy to implement, has less operational overhead, secure and cost efficient. So, B, E and F are the correct options. Check this documentation for more details about Security Hub capability to find missing tags - https://docs.aws.amazon.com/securityhub/latest/userguide/standards-tagging.html

BEF ,There are two ask in the question : 1)Find out the list of EC2 instances which are missing tags (Option E and F) 2)Make sure this doesn't happen in the future (Since this is applicable for all the accounts under an organization so SCP seems to be a better option )

For F they said "Use AWS Security Hub to aggregate a list of EC2 instances with the missing Project tag." to its just for listing not action but It would have been good if it had been more detailed
