We all understand how important security is for any organization, irrespective of their
type and size. The Amazon Web Services (AWS) platform is one of the most flexible and
secure cloud services available today. As a result, there is a growing demand for
candidates who understand AWS security.

If you're a qualified applicant searching for work in the AWS security area, here's a list of
interview questions to help you land your dream job.
1. What does AWS mean by cloud security?
Ans. In order to meet core security and compliance requirements such as data locality,
protection, and integrity by utilising AWS cloud security comprehensive services and
feature

Ans. WAF is a Layer 7 Virtual firewall from AWS is a tool for protecting web applications
against typical attacks and bots that may damage availability, breach security, or
consume unnecessary resources. As a part of AWS, WAF establishes Layer 7 security rules
that govern bot traffic and prevents common attack patterns, such as SQL injection or
cross-site scripting, from reaching your applications.
3. What are the various AWS IAM categories that you can manage?
Ans. Users, groups, security credentials, and policies can all be controlled by the AWS
account holder. You can also give individual users authorization to make calls to IAM APIs
in order to manage other users.

4. When it comes to user passwords, what regulations are there that you
can establish?
Ans. Passwords for IAM users must adhere to AWS's IAM default password policy which
states that the password length must be:
8-character minimum and 128-character maximum.
Numbers, letters, and symbols are required in at least three of the following combinations.

5. Where does an IAM role differ from an IAM user?
Ans. While interacting directly with AWS services, an IAM user has long-term credentials
that will not expire. As an IAM role, it can assume temporary privileges which are given by
AWS STS and we do not have to pass any credentials directly to the user. AWS role can be
assumed by an AWS Service or an account.
6. What services are available for implementing a centralised logging
solution?
Ans. There are three services you'll need: Amazon CloudWatch Logs & cloudTrail logs,
which you'll store in Amazon S3, and Amazon ElasticSearch, which can be used to
transport data from Amazon S3 to Amazon ElasticSearch.

Amazon Web Services?

as granting or denying access to AWS resources via policies.

Ans. Using existing system, application, and custom log files, Amazon
CloudWatch Logs allows you to centrally monitor and debug your systems and
applications. You can also use CloudWatch Logs to monitor your logs in realtime
for specific words, values, or styles etc, and trigger some actions based on that.
