A company requires detailed information on actions taken within their cloud environment, such as user actions and accesses, for compliance auditing. To address this need, which service should primarily be used to capture and record these interactions?
The correct answer is AWS CloudTrail. It's designed to capture and record all actions taken within an environment, like user accesses and API activities, which is crucial for auditing and compliance purposes. While Amazon CloudWatch provides monitoring and logging capabilities, it is primarily focused on performance and operational health, not recording API call history for auditing. AWS Security Hub focuses on security checks and consolidations of findings from various services but does not specifically track user actions or API calls. Amazon Inspector offers automated security assessment services for vulnerabilities and does not deal with logging and tracking of all interactions within an environment. Therefore, CloudTrail is the best fit for the requirement.
