- A
Configure Bedrock Guardrails with a 'Prompt/Response Output' filter to block responses that match exact phrases from the knowledge base.
Guardrails can filter out responses that contain specific strings, preventing regurgitation.
- B
Remove the knowledge base and rely solely on the model's pre-trained knowledge.
Why wrong: The company wants to use the knowledge base for relevance; removing it would reduce quality.
- C
Reduce the maximum token limit for model responses so that it cannot generate long strings.
Why wrong: Short responses could still contain exact matches; this is not a reliable prevention.
- D
Encrypt the knowledge base data using AWS KMS with a unique key.
Why wrong: Encryption protects data at rest, but does not prevent the model from generating exact matches during inference.
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 that uses Amazon Bedrock for generating product descriptions wants to ensure that the output does not contain any confidential information from its proprietary database that is used as context. The company uses a knowledge base in Bedrock to augment the model. The security team is concerned that the model might inadvertently regurgitate exact strings from the knowledge base. The company wants to adopt a solution that prevents this while still allowing the model to use the knowledge base for generating relevant descriptions. What should the company do?
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
Configure Bedrock Guardrails with a 'Prompt/Response Output' filter to block responses that match exact phrases from the knowledge base.
Option A is correct because Bedrock Guardrails can be configured with a 'Prompt/Response Output' filter that uses a deny list of exact phrases or patterns. This allows the model to use the knowledge base for context while blocking any generated responses that contain verbatim strings from the proprietary database, directly addressing the security team's concern about regurgitation.
Key principle: Answer the scenario, not the keyword: identify the specific constraint before choosing the most familiar-sounding option.

Common exam traps
Common exam trap: answer the scenario, not the keyword
The trap here is that candidates may confuse data-at-rest protection (encryption) with output filtering, or assume that limiting response length prevents data leakage, when in fact only a guardrail-based output filter can block exact string matches from the generated content.
Detailed technical explanation
How to think about this question
Bedrock Guardrails' 'Prompt/Response Output' filter works by applying content policies and deny lists at inference time, scanning the generated text before it is returned to the user. This is distinct from input filtering or encryption, as it operates on the model's output stream. In practice, this filter can be configured with a list of sensitive strings (e.g., customer PII or proprietary product codes) and will block any response containing them, even if the model generates them from the knowledge base context.
KKey Concepts to Remember
- Read the scenario before looking for a memorised answer.
- Find the constraint that changes the correct option.
- Eliminate answers that are true in general but not in this case.
TExam Day Tips
- Watch for words such as best, first, most likely and least administrative effort.
- Review why wrong options are wrong, not only why the correct option is correct.
Key takeaway
Answer the scenario, not the keyword: identify the specific constraint before choosing the most familiar-sounding option.
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. Answer the scenario, not the keyword: identify the specific constraint before choosing the most familiar-sounding option. Cloud exam questions reward reading the constraint carefully: the same technology can be right or wrong depending on the use case.
