AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner — Question 774

A company is using AWS Organizations to configure AWS accounts.

Which design principle is a best practice for the company to implement?

Answer options

• A. Organize accounts based on security and operational needs.
• B. Assign multiple sets of related workloads to each production account.
• C. Deploy workloads to the organization’s management account.
• D. Combine production workloads and non-production workloads.

Correct answer: A

Explanation

Organizing accounts based on security and operational needs is a key AWS best practice that allows organizations to isolate environments and apply tailored security policies. Conversely, deploying workloads to the management account or combining production and non-production workloads increases risk and violates the principle of least privilege.
