Exam AWS Certified Solutions Architect - Associate SAA-C03 topic 1 question 977 discussion

A financial services company plans to launch a new application on AWS to handle sensitive financial transactions. The company will deploy the application on Amazon EC2 instances. The company will use Amazon RDS for MySQL as the database. The company’s security policies mandate that data must be encrypted at rest and in transit.

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

  • A. Configure encryption at rest for Amazon RDS for MySQL by using AWS KMS managed keys. Configure AWS Certificate Manager (ACM) SSL/TLS certificates for encryption in transit.
  • B. Configure encryption at rest for Amazon RDS for MySQL by using AWS KMS managed keys. Configure IPsec tunnels for encryption in transit.
  • C. Implement third-party application-level data encryption before storing data in Amazon RDS for MySQL. Configure AWS Certificate Manager (ACM) SSL/TLS certificates for encryption in transit.
  • D. Configure encryption at rest for Amazon RDS for MySQL by using AWS KMS managed keys. Configure a VPN connection to enable private connectivity to encrypt data in transit.

Amazon RDS for MySQL supports encryption at rest using AWS Key Management Service (KMS) managed keys. This encryption is easy to enable during the creation of the RDS instance and requires minimal configuration. AWS KMS provides a fully managed solution for managing encryption keys, and using KMS managed keys reduces operational overhead related to key management and rotation. Encryption in transit ensures that data transmitted between the application and the RDS database is secure. AWS Certificate Manager (ACM) can be used to provide SSL/TLS certificates, which are required to encrypt data in transit. ACM simplifies the management of SSL/TLS certificates by handling certificate renewal and deployment, reducing operational overhead.
