Selected Answer: BCE
B. Enable termination protection for the EC2 instance if termination protection has not been enabled. This prevents accidental termination of the instance during the investigation. C. Take snapshots of the Amazon Elastic Block Store (Amazon EBS) data volumes that are attached to the EC2 instance. Creating snapshots ensures that you have a backup of the current state of your data volumes, which is crucial for forensic analysis. E. Capture the EC2 instance metadata, and then tag the EC2 instance as under quarantine. Capturing metadata provides information about the instance that could be useful during the investigation, and tagging the instance helps in tracking and managing the investigation process.
