Selected Answer: D

AWS Shield Advanced provides near real-time visibility into attacks on your resources and a dedicated AWS team to assist with DDoS attacks. It provides a higher level of protection than AWS Shield Standard, which is automatically included for free on all AWS accounts. AWS Shield Standard offers limited protection against common and most frequently occurring DDoS attacks. AWS WAF is a web application firewall that helps protect web applications from common web exploits, and Amazon Macie is a security service that uses machine learning to automatically discover, classify, and protect sensitive data in AWS.
