It is a tricky question, both AWS Artifact and AWS Compliance Program are correct for the compliance topic. But the main clue in the question is “DETERMINE which AWS services meet the regional requirements”. AWS Compliance program is described as “helping customers to understand the robust controls in place at AWS to maintain security and compliance in the cloud.”, so the understanding if they meet the requirements before doing anything in AWS: https://aws.amazon.com/compliance/programs/ AWS Artifact is used to manage and accept all required agreements for IAM roles for members of the organization, as well as monitor for new future agreements, but that is after acknowledging which services are already running: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rss0CJ0bw40 So with that knowledge, from the question I understand that the customer wants to check which services meet the regional requirements before doing any action, so C is more fitting in that scenario.

The correct answer is D - AWS Artifact From AWS skillbuilder: "If you run software that deals with consumer data in the EU, you would need to make sure that you're in compliance with GDPR, or if you run healthcare applications in the US you will need to design your architectures to meet HIPAA compliance requirements. " "One place you can access these documents is through a service called AWS Artifact. With AWS Artifact, you can gain access to compliance reports done by third parties who have validated a wide range of compliance standards. Check out the AWS Compliance Center in order to find compliance information all in one place. It will show you compliance enabling services as well as documentation like the AWS Risk and Security Whitepaper, which you should read to ensure that you understand security and compliance with AWS.

Use AWS Compliance Program if you need high-level guidance on AWS’s compliance capabilities and global certifications. Use AWS Artifact if you need specific reports, agreements, or certifications to evaluate and demonstrate compliance with regional regulatory requirements, such as GDPR in Europe.

Both the AWS Compliance Program and AWS Artifact are important components for ensuring compliance, but for the specific need of determining which AWS services meet regional requirements in European countries, AWS Artifact would be the more direct and focused tool for accessing the necessary compliance-related documentation.

AWS Artifact offers downloadable content related to compliance, including AWS's certifications and third-party audit reports, which can help you verify that AWS services are compliant with specific regulatory requirements in different regions, such as Europe. This documentation can be essential for ensuring that your application on AWS adheres to the necessary regulatory standards and requirements. Options A (AWS Audit Manager), B (AWS Shield), and C (AWS Compliance Program) are related to security and compliance management but do not provide the same access to detailed compliance documentation as AWS Artifact does.

AWS Compliance Program isn't directly used by customers to determine which AWS services meet regional requirements. Instead, it refers to the set of compliance programs that AWS participates in to ensure that its services align with various security and regulatory standards. For the scenario described, AWS Artifact (option D) is the more suitable choice, as it provides documentation and compliance reports that customers can review to determine if AWS services meet regional regulatory requirements.

It's a Really Tricky Question, But i think the Answer is C: Aws Compliance Program, Related to this Specific Question, this is why: AWS Compliance Program is a more comprehensive solution that can help customers assess and improve their compliance posture. AWS Artifact is a good option if customers only need access to compliance-related information about AWS services.

This one is confusing. The company must abide by regional regulatory requirements. I think the main clue is abide by. Hope to not see this question. Strong argument can be made for C also.
