A company is building an application in the AWS Cloud. The company wants to use temporary credentials for the application to access other AWS resources.
Which AWS service will meet these requirements?
AWS Security Token Service (AWS STS) is a service that provides temporary security credentials to users or applications that need to access AWS resources. The temporary credentials have a limited lifetime and can be configured to last from a few minutes to several hours. The credentials are not stored with the user or application, but are generated dynamically and provided on request.The credentials work almost identically to long-term access key credentials, but have the advantage of not requiring distribution, rotation, or revocation1.
AWS Key Management Service (AWS KMS) is a service that provides encryption and decryption services for data and keys.It does not provide temporary security credentials2.
AWS CloudHSM is a service that provides hardware security modules (HSMs) for cryptographic operations and key management.It does not provide temporary security credentials3.
Amazon Cognito is a service that provides user authentication and authorization for web and mobile applications.It can also provide temporary security credentials for authenticated users, but not for applications4.
