[All AWS Certified Security - Specialty Questions]

Unapproved changes were previously made to a company's Amazon S3 bucket. A security engineer configured AWS Config to record configuration changes made to the company's S3 buckets. The engineer discovers there are S3 configuration changes being made, but no Amazon SNS notifications are being sent. The engineer has already checked the configuration of the SNS topic and has confirmed the configuration is valid.
Which combination of steps should the security engineer take to resolve the issue? (Choose two.)

  • A. Configure the S3 bucket ACLs to allow AWS Config to record changes to the buckets.
  • B. Configure policies attached to S3 buckets to allow AWS Config to record changes to the buckets.
  • C. Attach the AmazonS3ReadOnlyAccess managed policy to IAM User.
  • D. Verify the security engineer's IAM user has an attached policy that allows all AWS Config actions.
  • E. Assign the AWSConfigRole managed policy to the AWS Config role.

E is not a correct option. "On July 5, 2022, the AWS managed policy AWSConfigRole will be deprecated." https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/mt/service-notice-upcoming-changes-required-for-aws-config/

https://docs.aws.amazon.com/config/latest/developerguide/s3-bucket-policy.html The AWS Config service-linked role does not have permission to put objects to Amazon S3 buckets. So, if you set up AWS Config using a service-linked role, AWS Config will send configuration items as the AWS Config service principal instead. You will need to attach an access policy, mentioned in step 6 below, to the Amazon S3 bucket in your own account or another account to grant AWS Config access to the Amazon S3 bucket.

To record your AWS resource configurations, AWS Config requires IAM permissions to get the configuration details about your resources. Use the AWS managed policy AWS_ConfigRole and attach it to the IAM role that you assign to AWS Config.

A, E If you configured AWS Config to record S3 buckets, and are not receiving configuration change notifications: E. Verify that the IAM role assigned to AWS Config has the AWSConfigRole managed policy. A. If you have S3 bucket policies attached to your buckets, verify that they allow AWS Config permission to record changes to your buckets.

Indeed, seems like a valid answer from the AWS Config Developer guide. However, I believe anwer B matches better than A the step "If you have S3 bucket policies attached to your buckets, verify that they allow AWS Config permission to record changes to your buckets." A refers to ACL while B refers to bucket policies. So answer: B E
