Explanation:
To minimize the chance of accidental deletions via API calls (such as from a Lambda function), you must enable deletion protection directly on the DynamoDB tables (Option B). Stack termination protection only protects against deletions via CloudFormation, not direct API calls. To minimize data loss if a deletion does occur, enabling Point-In-Time Recovery (PITR) provides continuous backups that allow restoring to any second within the past 35 days (Option C), which minimizes data loss much better than daily backups or exports.

Question 15
A company has an application that uses Amazon DynamoDB tables. The tables are spread across AWS accounts and AWS Regions. The company uses AWS CloudFormation to deploy AWS resources.
A new team at the company is deleting unused AWS resources. The team accidentally deletes several production DynamoDB tables by running an AWS Lambda function that makes a DynamoDB DeleteTable API call. The table deletions cause an application outage.
A SysOps administrator must implement a solution that minimizes the chance of accidental deletions of tables. The solution also must minimize data loss that results from accidental deletions.
Which combination of steps will meet these requirements? (Choose two.)
A
Enable termination protection for the CloudFormation stacks that deploy the DynamoDB tables.
B
Enable deletion protection for the DynamoDB tables.
C
Enable point-in-time recovery for the DynamoDB tables. Restore the tables if they are accidentally deleted.
D
Schedule daily backups of the DynamoDB tables. Restore the tables if they are accidentally deleted.
E
Export the DynamoDB tables to Amazon S3 every day. Use Import from Amazon S3 to restore data for tables that are accidentally deleted.
