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 Firewall Manager
Options B, C, and E are correct: AWS Firewall Manager centrally manages firewall rules across accounts; AWS Security Hub provides a unified view of security alerts and compliance checks; AWS CloudTrail logs API calls across accounts for auditing and monitoring. Option A is wrong because AWS Direct Connect is a dedicated network connection service, not a policy enforcement service. Option D is wrong because Amazon Route 53 Resolver DNS Firewall is a DNS-layer filtering service, but the question asks for central policy enforcement and management across accounts, which is not its primary function.
