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
✓
restricted-ssh
'restricted-ssh' is the managed rule that checks for SSH access from 0.0.0.0/0. Option A is wrong because 'vpc-sg-open-only-to-authorized-ports' is not specific to SSH. Option B is wrong because 'ec2-security-group-attached-to-eni' checks attachment, not rules. Option D is wrong because 'incoming-ssh-disabled' is not a managed rule.
