Home / Amazon / SAA-C02 / Question 44

A company is performing an AWS Well-Architected Framework review of an existing workload deployed on AWS. The review identified a public-facing website running on the same Amazon EC2 instance as a Microsoft Active Directory domain controller that was install recently to support other AWS services. A solutions architect needs to recommend a new design that would improve the security of the architecture and minimize the administrative demand on IT staff.What should the solutions architect recommend?

• A. Use AWS Directory Service to create a managed Active Directory. Uninstall Active Directory on the current EC2 instance.

• B. Create another EC2 instance in the same subnet and reinstall Active Directory on it. Uninstall Active Directory.

• C. Use AWS Directory Service to create an Active Directory connector. Proxy Active Directory requests to the Active domain controller running on the current EC2 instance.

• D. Enable AWS Single Sign-On (AWS SSO) with Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML) 2.0 federation with the current Active Directory controller. Modify the EC2 instance's security group to deny public access to Active Directory.
