QuestionQ43

Security and Compliance

A company has business-critical resources in an AWS account. It wants to receive an email notification whenever an AWS Management Console root-user sign-in event occurs in that account.

Which solution satisfies this requirement with the MOST operational efficiency?

Explanation

AWS CloudTrail records root-user console sign-ins as ConsoleLogin events, and Amazon EventBridge rules can react to AWS Management Console sign-in events delivered through CloudTrail. An EventBridge rule can publish matching events to an Amazon SNS topic, and an email address can subscribe to that topic to receive notifications. This is a fully managed, event-driven design with no polling infrastructure to operate.
