AWS Certified Security - Specialty SCS-C03

Question

A company is investigating a rise in its monthly AWS bill. The company determines that malicious actors compromised several Amazon EC2 instances and used them to host webpages for a large email-phishing campaign.

A security engineer must implement a solution that monitors future cost increases to help identify malicious activity.

Which solution will provide the company with the EARLIEST detection of cost increases?

Explanation

AWS Cost Anomaly Detection uses machine learning to detect anomalous spending. An individual alert notifies an Amazon SNS topic as soon as an anomaly is detected, and a percentage-impact threshold can trigger the alert when actual cost exceeds expected cost by the configured percentage.
