Quality speaks for itself

SAMPLE QUESTION:

A company manages multiple AWS accounts through AWS Organizations. Users currently access the accounts by using IAM users and long-term access keys. The security team has introduced a new requirement that all access to AWS accounts must use temporary security credentials that expire after 60 minutes. The company also requires users to authenticate through a SAML-based external identity provider before they can access AWS accounts.

Which solution should the security engineer recommend?

1. Create an IAM federation setup in each AWS account separately by using SAML providers and directly map the external users to IAM users in each account with 60-minute console sessions

2. Configure AWS IAM Identity Center with the external SAML identity provider, assign the required permission sets for account access, set the session duration to 60 minutes, require users to obtain AWS CLI credentials through IAM Identity Center, and remove the IAM users from the AWS accounts

3. Configure AWS Secrets Manager and Amazon Cognito in each AWS account, create a Cognito identity pool that uses the external identity provider, store account access secrets in Secrets Manager, and require users to call `get-secret-value` from the AWS CLI to access the AWS accounts

4. Enable AWS IAM Roles Anywhere in the organization management account, install the credential helper for all users, configure IAM roles with a 60-minute session duration, and require users to use the helper to retrieve temporary credentials for AWS account access

What's your guess? Scroll below for the answer.

Correct: 2.

Explanation:

Configure AWS IAM Identity Center with the external SAML identity provider, assign the required permission sets for account access, set the session duration to 60 minutes, require users to obtain AWS CLI credentials through IAM Identity Center, and remove the IAM users from the AWS accounts

AWS IAM Identity Center is the native AWS service for centralized workforce authentication and authorization across multiple AWS accounts. It supports federation with an external SAML identity provider, account assignments through permission sets, and controlled session durations. This directly matches the requirement to use a SAML-based IdP and temporary credentials that expire after 60 minutes.

This option also removes the long-term IAM user access model, which is important because the requirement explicitly states that users must no longer rely on permanent credentials. By using IAM Identity Center, users obtain temporary credentials after authenticating through the external IdP, including for AWS CLI access.

This is the most scalable and operationally efficient choice because it centralizes access across the organization, uses native AWS federation features, and avoids maintaining IAM users and access keys in each AWS account.

Incorrect options:

Create an IAM federation setup in each AWS account separately by using SAML providers and directly map the external users to IAM users in each account with 60-minute console sessions - Direct SAML federation in each account can work, but it requires separate per-account configuration and does not provide the centralized access model needed for an AWS Organizations environment. This option also incorrectly refers to mapping external users directly to IAM users. The more scalable native AWS pattern is to use IAM Identity Center with permission sets, not per-account IAM user mapping.

Configure AWS Secrets Manager and Amazon Cognito in each AWS account, create a Cognito identity pool that uses the external identity provider, store account access secrets in Secrets Manager, and require users to call `get-secret-value` from the AWS CLI to access the AWS accounts - Secrets Manager is used to store and retrieve secrets, not to provide AWS account access sessions for users. 'get-secret-value' retrieves stored secrets, but it does not authenticate users into AWS accounts. Amazon Cognito can federate identities for application users, but it is not the right service for centralized workforce access into AWS accounts in this scenario. This option uses the wrong services for the problem.

Enable AWS IAM Roles Anywhere in the organization management account, install the credential helper for all users, configure IAM roles with a 60-minute session duration, and require users to use the helper to retrieve temporary credentials for AWS account access - IAM Roles Anywhere is designed for workloads outside AWS that use X.509 certificates to obtain temporary credentials. It is not the intended solution for human workforce access through a SAML-based identity provider. This option also does not satisfy the requirement that users must use a SAML IdP. It solves a different problem centered on certificate-based workload authentication.
