ISC2 Systems Security Certified Practitioner (SSCP) Practice Question

Your organization is migrating an on-premises HR application that stores sensitive employee PII to Amazon S3. To meet PCI-DSS requirements, the data must be encrypted at rest, encryption keys must be managed separately from the data, and operations staff want to avoid running their own key infrastructure. Which approach best satisfies these confidentiality requirements while minimizing operational overhead?

  • Enable server-side encryption with Amazon S3 managed keys (SSE-S3) on the bucket that stores the HR data.

  • Migrate the data to encrypted Amazon EBS volumes attached to an EC2 instance and expose the files through an SFTP server.

  • Require client-side encryption using customer-provided keys stored in an on-premises hardware security module (HSM) before uploading each object to S3.

  • Configure server-side encryption with AWS Key Management Service keys (SSE-KMS) and attach a bucket policy that requires all uploads to specify the KMS key.
