I heard it also helps with compliance requirements.

I definitely recall that hardening is about securing systems, but I can't remember if it directly involves creating alerts or analyzing attacks.

I feel like hardening might also relate to identifying vulnerabilities, but that sounds more like a different process.

I think hardening is more about securely configuring machines, like option A. We practiced a similar question in class!

I remember hardening systems is about reducing vulnerabilities, but I'm not sure if it's specifically about limiting the attack surface or something else.

I'm not entirely sure about this one. The options seem to cover a range of security-related tasks, but I'm not confident which one specifically describes the purpose of hardening. I'll have to make an educated guess on this.

Okay, I've got this. Hardening systems is all about reducing the attack surface by properly configuring the machines. That's definitely the right answer here. Option A is the way to go.

Hmm, I'm a bit confused on this one. I know hardening has to do with security, but I'm not sure if it's about creating alert logic or identifying vulnerabilities. I'll have to think this through carefully.

I'm pretty sure the purpose of hardening systems is to securely configure machines to limit the attack surface, so I'll go with option A.

I feel pretty good about this. The key is that the all=yes argument is used, so I think the answer is that all the context data will be deleted, except for the incident key. So I'll go with D.

This question seems straightforward. I think the key is to identify the element that is not part of a total quality management program.

Okay, let me think this through step-by-step. With three replicas and min.insync.replicas set to 2, that means the broker needs at least two in-sync replicas to consider the write successful. If two of the replicas are not available, then there's only one in-sync replica left, so the acks=all produce request should be blocked until one of the other replicas comes back online. I'll go with option C.

I'm feeling pretty confident about this one. I know KMS supports RSAES-OAEP with SHA-256, and RSAES-PKCS1-v1_5 is a common option too. I'll double-check the other choices to make sure I have the right 3 answers.
