Selected Answer: D
There's nothing called "VPN Gateway". It's Virtual Private Gateway (VGW) to be used, if you want to deploy site-to-site VPN over Direct Connect. That's using AWS terms. Poor worded answers trying to be tricky but caused confusion instead.

D is my answer. C - Definitely a secure and consistent way of communicating But, as the on-prem applications send the limited confidential data which is ensured by the application itself, do we really need to further encrypt it via VPN Tunnel, knowing the fact that AWS direct connect is a private line to customer?

C -> MOST securely - from AWS materials -> This solution combines the benefits of the end-to-end secure IPSec connection with low latency and increased bandwidth of the AWS Direct Connect to provide a more consistent network experience than internet-based VPN connections.
