AIF-C01 Practice Question: Security, Compliance, and Governance for AI Solutions
A company needs to audit all API calls made to Amazon Bedrock, including model invocations and guardrail evaluations. Which AWS service should they enable to capture these API calls for compliance?
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
✓
AWS CloudTrail
AWS CloudTrail records API calls for all AWS services, including Bedrock. It captures the caller identity, API, parameters, and response elements, which can be used for auditing and compliance.
Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✓
AWS CloudTrail
Why this is correct
AWS CloudTrail records Bedrock control-plane and data-plane API activity, including model invocations and guardrail evaluations, as audit events. It satisfies the compliance requirement to capture every API call by logging requests, identities, timestamps and source IPs to an immutable trail, which can then be queried or exported for auditing.
- ✗
Amazon Macie
Why it's wrong here
Macie discovers and classifies sensitive data in Amazon S3 using machine learning; it does not capture Bedrock API calls. It is tempting because Macie addresses data-security compliance, but its scope is S3 object inspection, not the API-level audit trail that CloudTrail records.
- ✗
AWS Config
Why it's wrong here
AWS Config records resource configuration changes and evaluates compliance rules; it does not log individual Bedrock InvokeModel or guardrail API calls. It is tempting because Config supports compliance auditing, but that applies to resource state, not the per-request API activity CloudTrail captures.
- ✗
Amazon GuardDuty
Why it's wrong here
GuardDuty detects threats by analysing CloudTrail management events, VPC flow logs and DNS logs; it does not record Bedrock model invocation or guardrail evaluation calls. It is tempting because GuardDuty surfaces anomalous API activity, which suits threat detection rather than the complete audit trail CloudTrail provides.
