Explanation
According to the AWS Shared Responsibility Model:
-
AWS is responsible for "Security OF the Cloud" - This includes the underlying infrastructure, hardware, software, networking, and facilities that run AWS Cloud services.
-
Customers are responsible for "Security IN the Cloud" - This includes managing guest operating systems, applications, data, firewall configurations, and identity and access management.
Breakdown of options:
-
❌ Management of guest operating systems - Customer responsibility
-
❌ Firewall configuration changes - Customer responsibility
-
✅ Hardware for compute resources - AWS responsibility (this is part of the underlying infrastructure)
-
❌ Identity and access management - Customer responsibility
The correct answer is Hardware for compute resources because AWS manages all the physical infrastructure including servers, storage, networking hardware, and data center facilities.
