C makes sense. S3 buckets are account-specific.

A and B seem off. Employee accounts aren't necessary.

This question feels familiar; I think we practiced a similar one where account alignment was key.
AR
Arlette 9 months ago
I remember something about IAM roles, but I can't recall if they are necessary for S3 access.
VA
Vanda 9 months ago
Okay, I've got a strategy - I'll walk through each option and think about the specific access requirements for S3. That should help me determine the right answer.

I'm a bit confused on the difference between having an AWS account versus an IAM role. I'll make sure I understand that before the exam.
BE
Beckie 10 months ago
I think the user needs to be under the same AWS account as the S3 bucket, but I'm not entirely sure.
RE
Reena 10 months ago
Option C seems like the most likely answer, since S3 buckets are typically scoped to a specific AWS account. But I'll double-check that.
FL
Fletcher 10 months ago
Wait, so any AWS account can access it? That seems off.
PA
Pansy 10 months ago
D is important too. Roles manage access effectively.
NA
Natalya 11 months ago
Hmm, this seems tricky. I'll need to carefully consider the different options and think through the access requirements for S3.
GE

I think the key here is understanding how AWS IAM and S3 permissions work together. I'll need to review that before the exam.
