Exam AWS-SysOps topic 1 question 918 discussion

Exam question from Amazon's AWS-SysOps
Question #: 918
Topic #: 1
[All AWS-SysOps Questions]

A company's AWS account users are launching Amazon EC2 instances without required cost allocation tags. A SysOps administrator needs to prevent users within an organization in AWS Organizations from launching new EC2 instances that do not have the required tags. The solution must require the least possible operational overhead.
Which solution meets these requirements?

  • A. Set up an AWS Lambda function that will initiate a run instance event and check for the required tags. Configure the function to prevent the launch of EC2 instances if the tags are missing.
  • B. Set up an AWS Config rule to monitor for EC2 instances that lack the required tags.
  • C. Set up a service control policy (SCP) that prevents the launch of EC2 instances that lack the required tags. Attach the SCP to the organization root.
  • D. Set up an Amazon CloudWatch alarm to stop any EC2 instances that lack the required tags.

Selected Answer: C
Service Control Policies (SCPs) are a feature of AWS Organizations that allow you to set permissions across all accounts in your organization. By creating an SCP and attaching it to the organization root, you can control what actions are allowed or denied for all accounts within the organization. In this case, you can create an SCP that denies the ability to launch EC2 instances if they do not have the required cost allocation tags.

AWS Config is for compliance checking, it can't enforce the use of tags. SCP can be used that means C.
