Amazon Exam DOP-C02 Topic 5 Question 37 Discussion

Actual exam question for Amazon's DOP-C02 exam

Question #: 37
Topic #: 5

A company has deployed a new platform that runs on Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (Amazon EKS). The new platform hosts web applications that users frequently update. The application developers build the Docker images for the applications and deploy the Docker images manually to the platform.

The platform usage has increased to more than 500 users every day. Frequent updates, building the updated Docker images for the applications, and deploying the Docker images on the platform manually have all become difficult to manage.

The company needs to receive an Amazon Simple Notification Service (Amazon SNS) notification if Docker image scanning returns any HIGH or CRITICAL findings for operating system or programming language package vulnerabilities.

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

ACreate an AWS CodeCommit repository to store the Dockerfile and Kubernetes deployment files. Create a pipeline in AWS CodePipeline. Use an Amazon S3 event to invoke the pipeline when a newer version of the Dockerfile is committed. Add a stop to the pipeline to initiate the AWS CodeBuild project.

BCreate an AWS CodeCommit repository to store the Dockerfile and Kubernetes deployment files. Create a pipeline in AWS CodePipeline. Use an Amazon EvenlBridge event to invoke the pipeline when a newer version of the Dockerfile is committed. Add a step to the pipeline to initiate the AWS CodeBuild project.

CCreate an AWS CodeBuild project that builds the Docker images and stores the Docker images in an Amazon Elastic Container Registry (Amazon ECR) repository. Turn on basic scanning for the ECR repository. Create an Amazon EventBridge rule that monitors Amazon GuardDuty events. Configure the EventBridge rule to send an event to an SNS topic when the finding-severity-counts parameter is more than 0 at a CRITICAL or HIGH level.

DCreate an AWS CodeBuild project that builds the Docker images and stores the Docker images in an Amazon Elastic Container Registry (Amazon ECR) repository. Turn on enhanced scanning for the ECR repository. Create an Amazon EventBridge rule that monitors ECR image scan events. Configure the EventBridge rule to send an event to an SNS topic when the finding-severity-counts parameter is more than 0 at a CRITICAL or HIGH level.

ECreate an AWS CodeBuild project that scans the Dockerfile. Configure the project to build the Docker images and store the Docker images in an Amazon Elastic Container Registry (Amazon ECR) repository if the scan is successful. Configure an SNS topic to provide notification if the scan returns any vulnerabilities.
* Step 1: Automate Docker Image Deployment using AWS CodePipeline
The first challenge is the manual process of building and deploying Docker images. To address this, you can use AWS CodePipeline to automate the process. AWS CodePipeline integrates with CodeCommit (for source code and Dockerfile storage) and CodeBuild (to build Docker images and store them in Amazon Elastic Container Registry (ECR)).
Action: Create an AWS CodeCommit repository to store the Dockerfile and Kubernetes deployment files. Then, create a pipeline in AWS CodePipeline that triggers on new commits via an Amazon EventBridge event.
Why: This automation significantly reduces the manual effort of building and deploying Docker images when updates are made to the codebase.

Suggested Answer: B, D

This corresponds to Option B: Create an AWS CodeCommit repository to store the Dockerfile and Kubernetes deployment files. Create a pipeline in AWS CodePipeline. Use an Amazon EventBridge event to invoke the pipeline when a newer version of the Dockerfile is committed. Add a step to the pipeline to initiate the AWS CodeBuild project.

* Step 2: Enabling Enhanced Scanning on Amazon ECR and Monitoring Vulnerabilities To scan for vulnerabilities in Docker images, Amazon ECR provides both basic and enhanced scanning options. Enhanced scanning offers deeper and more frequent scans, and integrates with Amazon EventBridge to send notifications based on findings.

Action: Turn on enhanced scanning for the Amazon ECR repository where the Docker images are stored. Use Amazon EventBridge to monitor image scan events and trigger an Amazon SNS notification if any HIGH or CRITICAL vulnerabilities are found.

Why: Enhanced scanning provides a detailed analysis of operating system and programming language package vulnerabilities, which can trigger notifications in real-time.

This corresponds to Option D: Create an AWS CodeBuild project that builds the Docker images and stores the Docker images in an Amazon Elastic Container Registry (Amazon ECR) repository. Turn on enhanced scanning for the ECR repository. Create an Amazon EventBridge rule that monitors ECR image scan events. Configure the EventBridge rule to send an event to an SNS topic when the finding-severity-counts parameter is more than 0 at a CRITICAL or HIGH level.

C) Create an AWS CodeBuild project that builds the Docker images and stores the Docker images in an Amazon Elastic Container Registry (Amazon ECR) repository. Turn on basic scanning for the ECR repository. Create an Amazon EventBridge rule that monitors Amazon GuardDuty events. Configure the EventBridge rule to send an event to an SNS topic when the finding-severity-counts parameter is more than 0 at a CRITICAL or HIGH level.
