The exam validates a candidate’s ability to effectively demonstrate knowledge about securing AWS products and services.  \nThe exam also validates whether a candidate has the following:  \n• An understanding of specialized data classifications and AWS data protection mechanisms  \n• An understanding of data-encryption methods and AWS mechanisms to implement them  \n• An understanding of secure internet protocols and AWS mechanisms to implement them  \n• A working knowledge of AWS security services and features of services to provide a secure production environment  \n• Competency from 2 or more years of production deployment experience in using AWS security services and features  \n• The ability to make tradeoff decisions regarding cost, security, and deployment complexity to meet a set of application requirements  \n• An understanding of security operations and risks  \nTarget candidate description  \nThe target candidate should have the equivalent of 3–5 years of experience in designing and implementing security solutions. Additionally, the target candidate should have a minimum of 2 years of hands-on experience in securing AWS workloads.  \nRecommended AWS knowledge  \nThe target candidate should have the following knowledge:  \n• The AWS shared responsibility model and its application  \n• General knowledge of AWS services and deploying cloud solutions  \n• Security controls for AWS environments and workloads  \n• Logging and monitoring strategies  \n• Vulnerability management and security automation  \n• Ways to integrate AWS security services with third-party tools  \n• Disaster recovery controls, including backup strategies  \n• Cryptography and key management  \n• Identity access management  \n• Data retention and lifecycle management  \n• How to troubleshoot security issues  \n• Multi-account governance and organizational compliance  \n• Threat detection and incident response strategies  \nJob tasks that are out of scope for the target candidate  \nThe following list contains job tasks that the target candidate is not expected to be able to perform. This list is non-exhaustive. These tasks are out of scope for the exam:  \n• Develop software in a specific language (for example, Python, Java) .  \n• Confirm regulatory compliance.  \n• Manage software development lifecycles.  \n• Design network topologies.  \n• Architect overall cloud deployments.  \n• Configure storage services based on data residency requirements (for example, General Data Protection Regulation [GDPR]).  \nRefer to the Appendix for a list of technologies and concepts that might appear on the exam, a list of in-scope AWS services and features, and a list of out-of-scope AWS services and features.  \nExam content  \nResponse types  \nThere are two types of questions on the exam:  \n• Multiple choice: Has one correct response and three incorrect responses (distractors)  \n• Multiple response: Has two or more correct responses out of five or more response options  \nSelect one or more responses that best complete the statement or answer the question. Distractors, or incorrect answers, are response options that a candidate withincomplete knowledge or skill might choose. Distractors are generally plausible responses that match the content area.  \nUnanswered questions are scored as incorrect; there is no penalty for guessing. The exam includes 50 questions that affect your score.  \nUnscored content  \nThe exam includes 15 unscored questions that do not affect your score. AWS collects information about performance on these unscored questions to evaluate these questions for future use as scored questions. These unscored questions are not identified on the exam.  \nExam results  \nThe AWS Certified Security-Specialty (SCS-C02) exam has a pass or fail designation. The exam is scored against a minimum standard established by AWS","cbCaic9o8j7HbWQh","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaic9o8j7HbWQh","pdf",182940,"English","# Introduction\n# Target candidate description\n# Recommended AWS knowledge\n# Job tasks that are out of scope\n# Exam content\n## Response types\n## Unscored content\n## Exam results\n## Content outline\n## Domain 1: Threat Detection and Incident Response","[{\"question\":\"What does the SCS-C02 exam validate for candidates?\",\"answer\":\"It validates the ability to demonstrate knowledge of securing AWS products and services.
