AWS Certified Advanced Networking – Specialty (ANS-C00) — Question 110

AWS Config flags a resource as ____ if a resource violates any conditions of an AWS Config rule that it evaluates on the resource in question.

Answer options

• A. corrupted
• B. noncompliant
• C. invalid
• D. misconfigured

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is 'noncompliant' because it specifically indicates that a resource does not adhere to the defined rules. The other options do not accurately describe the status of a resource in relation to AWS Config rules; 'corrupted' suggests data integrity issues, 'invalid' implies an error in the resource’s configuration itself, and 'misconfigured' generally refers to a setup error rather than a compliance check.
