Question

A company has deployed its application on Amazon EC2 instances with an Amazon RDS database. The company used the principle of least privilege to configure the database access credentials. The company's security team wants to protect the application and the database from SQL injection and other web-based attacks. Which solution will meet these requirements with the LEAST operational overhead?

Accepted Answer

Correct answer: B. The correct answer is B. Option B: Use AWS WAF to protect the application. Use RDS parameter groups to configure the security settings. Amazon RDS is a managed relational database that handles patching, backups and failover. AWS WAF protects web applications from common exploits and malicious requests. AWS Config tracks resource configuration changes and evaluates compliance.
