AWS Certified CloudOps Engineer Associate SOA-C03 Practice Question

An organization's security team manages 50 AWS accounts with AWS Organizations. Compliance mandates that CloudTrail must remain enabled and its configuration must not be altered or deleted by account administrators. The enforcement must cover existing and new accounts automatically with minimal ongoing effort. Which solution satisfies these requirements using the fewest operational steps and aligns with AWS best practices?

  • Create an organization trail in the management account, enable log file validation, and share the trail with all member accounts.

  • Use AWS CloudFormation StackSets to deploy an IAM permissions boundary in every account that blocks CloudTrail modification actions.

  • Configure an AWS Config rule in each account that detects when CloudTrail logging is stopped and sends an SNS notification to the security team.

  • Attach an SCP to the organization root that denies cloudtrail:DeleteTrail, cloudtrail:StopLogging, and cloudtrail:UpdateTrail for all principals except those in the centralized logging account.
