Question 400
In an AWS networking assessment, an organization must maintain consistent WAF and security policies across hundreds of AWS accounts and new resources. Which technical explanation BEST accounts for the observed condition?
Explanation
Correct Answer
Account-by-account manual security policy edits cannot reliably preserve enterprise-wide coverage. This explains the observed network behavior, which can be checked by verifying that new in-scope resources receive the required centrally managed policy without ad hoc setup.
Incorrect Answers
Domain matching depends on visible protocol metadata and may not identify all encrypted application destinations. That property alone cannot account for the reported symptom; account-by-account manual security policy edits cannot reliably preserve enterprise-wide coverage.
Volumetric layer-three/four floods require upstream DDoS mitigation beyond individual HTTP pattern rules. That property alone cannot account for the reported symptom; account-by-account manual security policy edits cannot reliably preserve enterprise-wide coverage.
Stateful inspection tracks connection context rather than evaluating packets entirely independently. The decisive technical distinction is AWS Firewall Manager can centrally govern supported network and WAF policies across organization resources; account-by-account manual security policy edits cannot reliably preserve enterprise-wide coverage.
