ISC2 Systems Security Certified Practitioner (SSCP) Practice Question

An e-commerce company hosts its MySQL database on Amazon RDS with daily automated snapshots. After a faulty application deployment corrupts several critical tables, customers are unable to complete purchases. To implement an effective corrective control and restore normal operations with the least data loss, what should the security practitioner do first?

  • Create granular IAM roles that restrict the application's ability to update database tables going forward.

  • Convert the existing RDS instance to multi-AZ to replicate data to a standby and improve fault tolerance.

  • Enable Amazon GuardDuty to monitor the account and generate security findings related to the compromised database.

  • Restore the most recent automated snapshot to a new RDS instance, verify data integrity, and redirect production traffic to the restored database.
