- A
PII redaction to redact or mask sensitive data
PII redaction detects and redacts sensitive information like SSNs, credit card numbers, etc.
- B
Topic restriction to limit topics
Why wrong: Topic restrictions limit the model to certain topics but do not prevent sensitive data from appearing in responses.
- C
Word filter to block specific words
Why wrong: Word filters block exact words or phrases but are not effective for detecting complex sensitive data patterns like SSNs.
- D
Grounding check to verify responses are grounded in source documents
Why wrong: Grounding checks help prevent hallucinations but do not directly filter sensitive data.
- E
Content policy to filter out harmful content
Content policies block entire categories of harmful or sensitive content from being generated.
AIF-C01 Practice Question: Security, Compliance, and Governance for AI Solutions
This AIF-C01 practice question tests your understanding of security, compliance, and governance for ai solutions. This is a configuration task: choose the command set that satisfies every stated requirement. Small differences — like 'secret' vs 'password' or 'transport input ssh' vs 'all' — change whether the answer is correct. After answering, compare your reasoning against the explanation and wrong-answer breakdown below. Once you have made your selection, read the full explanation to reinforce the concept and understand why each distractor is designed to mislead on exam day.
A company is deploying a generative AI application using Amazon Bedrock and needs to ensure that the model's responses do not include any sensitive information. Which TWO Bedrock Guardrail configurations should be used together to meet this requirement? (Select TWO.)
Answer choices
Why each option matters
Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
PII redaction to redact or mask sensitive data
PII redaction removes sensitive information from responses, and content policies block harmful or sensitive content. Together they help ensure responses do not contain sensitive data.
Key principle: Count usable hosts — not total addresses — and remember that the network and broadcast addresses are not available to hosts in standard IPv4 subnets.

Common exam traps
Common exam trap: usable hosts are not the same as total addresses
Subnetting questions often tempt you into counting all addresses. In normal IPv4 subnets, the network and broadcast addresses are not usable host addresses.
Trap categories for this question
Keyword trap
Word filters block exact words or phrases but are not effective for detecting complex sensitive data patterns like SSNs.
Detailed technical explanation
How to think about this question
Subnetting questions test whether you can identify the network, broadcast address, usable range, mask and correct subnet. Slow down enough to calculate the block size correctly.
KKey Concepts to Remember
- CIDR notation defines the prefix length.
- Block size helps identify subnet boundaries.
- Network and broadcast addresses are not usable hosts in normal IPv4 subnets.
- The required host count determines the smallest suitable subnet.
TExam Day Tips
- Write the block size before choosing the subnet.
- Check whether the question asks for hosts, subnets or a specific address range.
- Do not confuse /24, /25, /26 and /27 host counts.
Key takeaway
Count usable hosts — not total addresses — and remember that the network and broadcast addresses are not available to hosts in standard IPv4 subnets.
Real-world example
How this comes up in practice
A cloud solutions architect for a retail company is evaluating services for a new workload. The correct answer here reflects best practice for the specific scenario described — not a general cloud recommendation. Count usable hosts — not total addresses — and remember that the network and broadcast addresses are not available to hosts in standard IPv4 subnets. Cloud exam questions reward reading the constraint carefully: the same technology can be right or wrong depending on the use case.
What to study next
Got this wrong? Here's your next step.
Review block sizes, usable host formulas (2^n − 2), and how to find network and broadcast addresses for /24 through /30. Then practise related AIF-C01 subnetting questions on CIDR, address ranges, and subnet selection.
