The correct answer is that the customer is responsible for managing the code within the Lambda function. For serverless services like AWS Lambda, AWS is responsible for 'security OF the cloud', which includes the underlying infrastructure, servers, operating system, patching, and scaling. The customer is responsible for 'security IN the cloud', which for Lambda, primarily involves the function's code, data, and Identity and Access Management (IAM) permissions. Therefore, managing the physical hardware, patching the OS, and scaling the infrastructure are all AWS responsibilities.
