Sample Question:
One of your teammates, who is new to AWS, needs your help protecting an EC2 instance. He has deployed a Web application on that EC2 instance. The teammate wants to ensure that only HTTP and HTTPS traffic are allowed to the EC2 instance. Which of the following options would you recommend to your teammate to ensure that only HTTP and HTTPS traffic are allowed to the EC2 instance?
Network ACLs
AWS Shield
Virtual Private Cloud (VPC)
Security Group
Correct answer
Security Group: Security Groups act as a virtual firewall for your EC2 instances and control inbound and outbound traffic. They are the most suitable option for ensuring that only HTTP and HTTPS traffic are allowed to an EC2 instance as they can be configured to allow specific protocols and ports, such as port 80 for HTTP and port 443 for HTTPS.
Overall explanation
Security Groups are virtual firewalls for your instance to control inbound and outbound traffic. They operate at the instance level and provide stateful filtering of ingress and egress traffic. Here's why Security Groups are the correct choice:
Instance-Level Security:
Security Groups are directly associated with EC2 instances. They allow you to specify which traffic is allowed to reach your instances.
Stateful Nature:
Security Groups are stateful, meaning that if you allow an incoming request from a specific IP and port, the response is automatically allowed regardless of outbound rules.
Granular Control:
You can specify rules based on protocol (e.g., TCP), port number (e.g., 80 for HTTP, 443 for HTTPS), and source/destination IP address or CIDR block.
Ease of Use:
Security Groups are easy to configure and manage. You can quickly set up rules to allow HTTP (port 80) and HTTPS (port 443) traffic.
How to Configure Security Groups for HTTP and HTTPS:
Create a Security Group:
Navigate to the Amazon EC2 console.
Under "Network & Security," select "Security Groups."
Click "Create Security Group."
Add Inbound Rules:
Add a rule for HTTP traffic:
Type: HTTP
Protocol: TCP
Port Range: 80
Source: 0.0.0.0/0 (for all IP addresses) or a specific IP range
Add a rule for HTTPS traffic:
Type: HTTPS
Protocol: TCP
Port Range: 443
Source: 0.0.0.0/0 (for all IP addresses) or a specific IP range
Assign Security Group to EC2 Instance:
Attach the newly created Security Group to your EC2 instance.
Why Other Options are Incorrect:
Network ACLs:
Network ACLs operate at the subnet level, not the instance level, and are stateless, meaning they do not automatically allow response traffic.
AWS Shield:
AWS Shield is a managed Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) protection service. It does not control specific traffic types to EC2 instances.
Virtual Private Cloud (VPC):
A VPC is a virtual network dedicated to your AWS account. While VPCs provide networking infrastructure, they do not control traffic to specific instances. Security Groups within the VPC control traffic.
