Questions and answers
Model answer
Grant each identity only the specific permissions it needs to do its job, and nothing more. Prefer roles with short-lived credentials over long-lived access keys, scope policies tightly to specific resources and actions, and review them regularly. This limits the damage if a credential is compromised.
Model answer
Create a VPC with public and private subnets across multiple availability zones. Put load balancers in public subnets with an internet gateway, and application and database tiers in private subnets that egress through a NAT gateway. Use security groups for tier-to-tier rules and keep the database reachable only from the app tier.
