AWS Certified Developer Associate DVA-C02 Practice Question
Your organization enforces a governance rule that only the central security team can create, update, or attach IAM policies. Developers cannot change identity-based or resource-based policies themselves. The development team must review configuration files stored in the S3 bucket named dev-configurations. What is the MOST secure way to grant the team the required read-only access while complying with the governance model and the principle of least privilege?
Attach the AWS-managed policy AmazonS3ReadOnlyAccess to the development team's IAM role.
Add an S3 bucket policy yourself that grants the development IAM users s3:GetObject permission on the bucket.
Create a permissions boundary for each developer that includes the required S3 actions.
Open a ticket asking the security team to create a customer-managed policy granting s3:GetObject and s3:ListBucket on the dev-configurations bucket and attach it to the development group.
Submitting a request to the security team ensures that a customer-managed policy is created with only s3:GetObject and s3:ListBucket permissions on the dev-configurations bucket and is attached to the development group or role. This honors the governance rule that developers may not manipulate policies. Adding an AWS-managed policy would grant broader access than necessary and still violates the control boundary. Editing the bucket policy yourself or attaching inline user policies bypasses the central authorization process. A permissions boundary alone cannot grant permissions; it only limits them.
