ISC2 Systems Security Certified Practitioner (SSCP) Practice Question

While auditing an AWS workload, you learn that an Application Load Balancer (ALB) uses an SSL/TLS certificate whose private key was accidentally committed to a public Git repository. The issuing public CA has already revoked the certificate, breaking client connections. To avoid similar key-management lapses and minimize future renewal effort, which remediation best aligns with AWS and PKI best practices?

  • Move the existing private key into AWS Secrets Manager encrypted with a customer-managed KMS key and load it to the ALB at deployment time

  • Replace the compromised certificate with a standard (non-exportable) ACM-issued public certificate and attach it to the ALB so that ACM manages the private key and performs automatic renewals

  • Disable HTTPS on the ALB and require applications to use CloudFront signed URLs for confidentiality instead

  • Simply enable OCSP stapling on the ALB so clients will no longer reject the revoked certificate
