Amazon-DEA-C01 Exam - Topic 4 Question 6 Discussion

Actual exam question for Amazon's Amazon-DEA-C01 exam
Question #: 6
Topic #: 4
[All Amazon-DEA-C01 Questions]

A company saves customer data to an Amazon S3 bucket. The company uses server-side encryption with AWS KMS keys (SSE-KMS) to encrypt the bucket. The dataset includes personally identifiable information (PII) such as social security numbers and account details.

Data that is tagged as PII must be masked before the company uses customer data for analysis. Some users must have secure access to the PII data during the preprocessing phase. The company needs a low-maintenance solution to mask and secure the PII data throughout the entire engineering pipeline.

Which combination of solutions will meet these requirements? (Select TWO.)

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A, D

To address the requirement of masking PII data and ensuring secure access throughout the data pipeline, the combination of AWS Glue DataBrew and IAM provides a low-maintenance solution.

A . AWS Glue DataBrew for Masking:

AWS Glue DataBrew provides a visual tool to perform data transformations, including masking PII data. It allows for easy configuration of data transformation tasks without requiring manual coding, making it ideal for this use case.


D . AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM):

Using IAM policies allows fine-grained control over access to PII data, ensuring that only authorized users can view or process sensitive data during the pipeline stages.

Alternatives Considered:

B (Amazon GuardDuty): GuardDuty is for threat detection and does not handle data masking or access control for PII.

C (Amazon Macie): Macie can help discover sensitive data but does not handle the masking of PII or access control.

E (Custom scripts): Custom scripting increases the operational burden compared to a built-in solution like DataBrew.

GuardDuty sounds useful for monitoring, but I’m not convinced it directly helps with masking the data. I’m leaning towards A and D.

I think we practiced a question similar to this, and using custom scripts for masking could be risky. Maybe option E isn't the best choice?

I'm not entirely sure, but I feel like IAM is essential for managing access to sensitive data, so option D seems right.
