ISC2 Systems Security Certified Practitioner (SSCP) Practice Question

Your company runs a mission-critical database on Amazon EC2 with data stored on encrypted EBS volumes. Regulations require daily, encrypted backups that must be retained for seven years and copied to a separate AWS account to reduce ransomware risk. Operational overhead must be kept to a minimum. Which approach best meets these requirements?

  • Create an S3 Lifecycle rule to move daily database exports to Glacier Deep Archive and run AWS DataSync jobs to replicate the bucket to the secondary account when needed.

  • Install backup software on the EC2 instance to create nightly compressed dumps on an attached encrypted volume, then copy that volume to an S3 bucket in the same account using a cron job.

  • Use AWS Backup to take daily encrypted snapshots of the EBS volumes, encrypt them with a customer managed KMS key, and configure a cross-account backup vault copy with a seven-year retention rule.

  • Enable EBS multi-attach to mirror the volume to an instance in the secondary account using RAID 1 and retain the data indefinitely without snapshotting.
