Question #803

Which AWS service is primarily used to access compliance reports and agreements?

A

AWS Config

B

AWS Trusted Advisor

C

AWS Artifact

D

AWS Security Hub

Explanation

AWS Artifact (C) is the primary service for accessing AWS compliance reports and agreements. It provides on-demand access to AWS's compliance documentation, such as SOC reports, PCI DSS, ISO certifications, and legal agreements like the Business Associate Addendum (BAA).

Why other options are incorrect:
- A. AWS Config: Tracks resource configurations and compliance over time but does not provide compliance reports or agreements.
- B. AWS Trusted Advisor: Offers optimization recommendations (cost, security, performance) but does not host compliance documentation.
- D. AWS Security Hub: Aggregates security findings from AWS services but does not provide compliance reports.

Key Point: AWS Artifact is specifically designed for compliance documentation, making it the correct choice.

Answer

The correct answer is: C
