Correct answer: A, B
Explanation
According to the AWS shared responsibility model, the customer is responsible for security 'in' the cloud, which includes configuring security group firewall rules and classifying their own data assets. AWS is responsible for security 'of' the cloud, which encompasses managing the physical infrastructure and patching managed services like Amazon DynamoDB, as well as handling the underlying execution environment for AWS Lambda and the physical placement of Amazon S3 buckets.
