AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner — Question 185

A company runs applications that process credit card information. Auditors have asked if the AWS environment has changed since the previous audit. If the AWS environment has changed, the auditors want to know how it has changed.

Which AWS services can provide this information? (Choose two.)

Answer options

• A. AWS Artifact
• B. AWS Trusted Advisor
• C. AWS Config
• D. AWS CloudTrail
• E. AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM)

Correct answer: C, D

Explanation

AWS Config is designed to track changes in the configuration of AWS resources, making it ideal for providing details on environmental changes. AWS CloudTrail records account activity and API usage, which helps auditors understand what actions were taken in the environment. The other options do not specifically focus on tracking changes in the environment or auditing purposes.
