question 77

Multiple Choice

A company is going through a security audit. The audit team has identified cleartext master user password in the AWS CloudFormation templates for Amazon RDS for MySQL DB instances.

• A) Change all the databases to use AWS IAM for authentication and remove all the cleartext passwords in CloudFormation templates.
• B) Use an AWS Secrets Manager resource to generate a random password and reference the secret in the CloudFormation template.
• C) Remove the passwords from the CloudFormation templates so Amazon RDS prompts for the password when the database is being created.
