Exam AWS Certified Solutions Architect - Professional SAP-C02 topic 1 question 162 discussion

A company runs an application on a fleet of Amazon EC2 instances that are in private subnets behind an internet-facing Application Load Balancer (ALB). The ALB is the origin for an Amazon CloudFront distribution. An AWS WAF web ACL that contains various AWS managed rules is associated with the CloudFront distribution.

The company needs a solution that will prevent internet traffic from directly accessing the ALB.

Which solution will meet these requirements with the LEAST operational overhead?

  • A. Create a new web ACL that contains the same rules that the existing web ACL contains. Associate the new web ACL with the ALB.
  • B. Associate the existing web ACL with the ALB.
  • C. Add a security group rule to the ALB to allow traffic from the AWS managed prefix list for CloudFront only.
  • D. Add a security group rule to the ALB to allow only the various CloudFront IP address ranges.

Selected Answer: C
https://docs.amazonaws.cn/en_us/AmazonCloudFront/latest/DeveloperGuide/LocationsOfEdgeServers.html If your origin is hosted on Amazon and protected by an Amazon VPC security group, you can use the CloudFront managed prefix list to allow inbound traffic to your origin only from CloudFront's origin-facing servers, preventing any non-CloudFront traffic from reaching your origin , imagine that your origin is an Amazon EC2 instance in the Europe (London) Region (eu-west-2). If the instance is in a VPC, you can create a security group rule that allows inbound HTTPS access from the CloudFront managed prefix list. This allows all of CloudFront's global origin-facing servers to reach the instance. If you remove all other inbound rules from the security group, you prevent any non-CloudFront traffic from reaching the instance
