AIF-C01 Practice Question 60: Compliance Report for Auditor
AWS Certified AI Practitioner (AIF-C01) · Test 6 · question 10 of 10
An external auditor reviewing a startup's Amazon Bedrock based product asks for evidence that the underlying AWS infrastructure is covered by an independent SOC report. The startup has no such report for the AWS layer itself. Where should it obtain one?
Show answer and explanation
Answer:
AWS Artifact *provides on-demand downloads of AWS security and compliance documents*; AWS names SOC reports, ISO standards and PCI Security Standards specifically, along with certifications from accreditation bodies. AWS adds that you can *submit AWS Artifact documents to your auditors or regulators as audit artifacts*, and the documents are free. This is the customer's half of the shared responsibility model: AWS evidences the cloud, you evidence what you built in it (option B).
- A is wrong because CloudTrail records who did what in your account. That is an activity trail of your own API calls, not an independent auditor's assessment of AWS's controls. - C is wrong because Trusted Advisor checks *your* resources against AWS best practices for cost, performance, security and resilience. Useful hygiene, but it audits your configuration, not AWS's infrastructure. - D is wrong because model invocation logging captures your application's prompts and completions. That is workload data (arguably sensitive data you would not hand over), and it says nothing about AWS's compliance posture.
