A company wants to enhance security by launching a third-party ISP intrusion detection system from its AWS account. Which AWS service or resource should the company use to meet this requirement?

Question

Options

• AAWS Security Hub
• BAWS Marketplace
• CAWS Quick Starts
• DAWS Security Center

• A
  3% (1)
• B
  90% (35)
• C
  5% (2)
• D
  3% (1)

Explanation

AWS Marketplace is the correct choice because it is the official AWS platform where customers can discover, purchase, and deploy third-party software solutions - including security tools like intrusion detection systems (IDS) from independent software vendors (ISPs) - directly into their AWS accounts with simplified licensing and billing.

• A (AWS Security Hub) is wrong because Security Hub is a native AWS service that aggregates and prioritizes security findings from AWS services and partners - it doesn't serve as a procurement channel for deploying third-party software.
• C (AWS Quick Starts) is wrong because Quick Starts (now called AWS Solutions Library) are pre-built reference deployments and CloudFormation templates for common architectures; they're not a marketplace for purchasing third-party software.
• D (AWS Security Center) is wrong because this service does not exist in AWS - it's a fabricated distractor, likely designed to be confused with Security Hub.

Memory tip: Think of AWS Marketplace as the "app store" for AWS - whenever a question involves acquiring or deploying third-party or ISV software into your AWS environment, Marketplace is almost always the answer.
