C. Rotate access keys on a reoccurring basis. Regularly rotating access keys is a security best practice recommended by AWS. By frequently changing access keys, you can minimize the risk of unauthorized access in case keys are compromised. This helps enhance the security posture of AWS resources and accounts.

C. Rotate access keys on a reoccurring basis. "Regularly rotating long-term credentials helps you familiarize yourself with the process. This is useful in case you are ever in a situation where you must rotate credentials, such as when an employee leaves your company. We recommend that you use IAM access last used information to rotate and remove access keys safely" https://docs.aws.amazon.com/IAM/latest/UserGuide/best-practices.html#rotate-credentials

Selected Answer: C
should be C https://docs.aws.amazon.com/IAM/latest/UserGuide/best-practices.html Where possible, we recommend relying on temporary credentials instead of creating long-term credentials such as access keys. However, for scenarios in which you need IAM users with programmatic access and long-term credentials, we recommend that you rotate access keys. Regularly rotating long-term credentials helps you familiarize yourself with the process. This is useful in case you are ever in a situation where you must rotate credentials, such as when an employee leaves your company. We recommend that you use IAM access last used information to rotate and remove access keys safely.
