Under the AWS shared responsibility model for Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) like Amazon EC2, which of the following is a customer's responsibility?
Guarding against environmental risks within data centers
Patching the guest operating system
Maintaining the hypervisor
Securing the physical hardware
In the AWS shared responsibility model, security responsibilities are divided between AWS and the customer. For IaaS services like Amazon EC2, AWS is responsible for securing the underlying infrastructure (hardware, software, networking, and facilities). The customer, however, is responsible for security 'in' the cloud. This includes patching the guest operating system, managing applications, and configuring network security like security groups. Physical data center security and maintenance of the virtualization layer (hypervisor) are responsibilities of AWS.
