Selected Answer: B

According to the AWS shared responsibility model, the responsibility for patching the guest operating system of Amazon EC2 instances lies with the customer. AWS is responsible for the security of the underlying infrastructure, including the hardware that runs EC2 instances, but the customer is responsible for managing and securing the operating system and applications running on those instances.

Selected Answer: B

https://aws.amazon.com/compliance/shared-responsibility-model/ Customers that deploy an Amazon EC2 instance are responsible for management of the guest operating system (including updates and security patches), any application software or utilities installed by the customer on the instances, and the configuration of the AWS-provided firewall (called a security group) on each instance.
