    AWS SAA-C03 · Question 16 · Domain 1.2: Secure Workloads

    An application in a private subnet needs to access an Amazon DynamoDB table. Traffic must not traverse the public internet. The security team requires that the application can ONLY access one specific DynamoDB table. How should this be implemented?

    Answer options:

    A.

    Create a NAT Gateway and use an IAM policy on the EC2 instance to restrict access.

    B.

    Create an Interface VPC Endpoint for DynamoDB and use Security Groups to restrict access.

    C.

    Create a Gateway VPC Endpoint for DynamoDB and attach an endpoint policy that allows access only to the specific table.

    D.

    Set up AWS Direct Connect to route traffic securely to DynamoDB.

    How to approach this question

    Identify the need for a Gateway Endpoint for DynamoDB and the use of Endpoint Policies for resource restriction.

    Full Answer

    C.Create a Gateway VPC Endpoint for DynamoDB and attach an endpoint policy that allows access only to the specific table.✓ Correct
    Gateway VPC Endpoints allow private access to DynamoDB without the internet. VPC Endpoint Policies are IAM resource policies attached to the endpoint that can restrict access to specific DynamoDB tables.

    Common mistakes

    Thinking DynamoDB uses Interface Endpoints (PrivateLink). It uses Gateway Endpoints.
