ISC2 Systems Security Certified Practitioner (SSCP) Practice Question

A development team runs a fleet of Amazon EC2 instances in an Auto Scaling group. A new compliance mandate requires a weekly, authenticated operating-system vulnerability assessment that produces a report with CVSS scores and recommended remediations. The solution must minimize manual effort and integrate natively with other AWS security services for alerting. Which approach most effectively satisfies these requirements?

  • Schedule AWS Systems Manager Patch Manager to install all missing patches weekly and use its compliance dashboard as the required assessment.

  • Activate Amazon Inspector, ensure the AWS Systems Manager agent is installed on the instances, and review the automatically generated vulnerability findings each week.

  • Create an AWS Config managed rule to check patch compliance daily and export the rule evaluations as the vulnerability report.

  • Enable Amazon GuardDuty to analyze VPC Flow Logs and AWS CloudTrail events for potential threats on a weekly schedule.
