I'm just glad they didn't ask about AWS's sense of humor. Apparently, it's not the best, but at least they have one. Unlike my bad puns.

Option C is the way to go. I mean, who doesn't love a good SAML Token? It's like the secret handshake of the AWS world.

I agree, SAML Tokens make authentication so much easier for 1AM and federated users.

Definitely! SAML Tokens are the best for providing temporary credentials.

Hmm, this one's tricky. I was hoping for a multiple-choice question on AWS storage services. At least this doesn't have any 'trick' answers like 'All of the above'.

Definitely C. IAM Roles are for granting long-term permissions, not temporary ones. And API Keys are for programmatic access, not federated identity.

I think the correct answer is Option C, SAML Token. That's the only one that provides temporary, limited privilege credentials for IAM users or federated users.
